Course Description

Welcome to the Excel VBA Programming Course for Beginners. If you need to learn how to program VBA for your job or for yourself, this course was designed for you!

You'll start with the very basics of understanding what VBA is and what it does. You'll learn how to install VBA and record your first macro. Then, you'll progress to learning all of the essential terminology as you create your own functional VBA modules. By the end of this course, you'll be able to create your own user forms that other users can interact with and enter data into, and you'll be able to troubleshoot and debug your code, make it run faster, and even create your own custom Excel functions.

The beauty of VBA is that when you learn to master it, you can program Excel to do the work for you.

Using VBA, you can save a ton of time for your organization by automating repetitive and tedious tasks.

VBA isn't exactly easy, but it's one of the simplest and easiest to learn programming languages. It's like the gateway drug that gets you hooked on programming. And in this course, I'll walk you through the initial learning curve to give you a solid foundation from which to launch your programming skills.

This is a very detailed course and you will walk away with a vastly expanded vocabulary and a full toolbox of VBA programming skills.

The truth is, you could  teach yourself VBA using free articles and videos on the internet. The challenge is that VBA can be hard to learn without the right info and the right examples. It's easy to waste a lot of time learning things that aren't useful in the real world. By following this course, you'll get clear, step-by-step guidance along a relevant and valuable learning path to master the essentials of Excel VBA.

I have a lot of personal experience learning and using VBA as an engineer and I'm very excited to pass that knowledge on to you! Ever since my days as a college tutor, I've loved teaching and helping people learn challenging subjects. So, if you're ready to learn how to start programming in Excel VBA, I'm excited to show you how!

Thanks for checking out the course and I'll see you in the first lesson.

By the way, did I mention that Udemy has a 30-day money back guarantee? That's right. You can take the whole course, and if in those first 30 days you don't feel like you're actively getting better at using VBA, you can get a full refund. So, you really have nothing to lose. Dive in and start learning Excel VBA today!

Instructor Details

Steve McDonald

Learning is easier with the right tools and instruction. In every one of my courses I take you step-by-step through the tools and knowledge you need to accomplish your goals. 

My talent is taking complex subjects (like Excel, Access and Photoshop) and making them simple to learn. I wasn't always good at technology. There was a time when I didn't even know how to correctly turn a computer on and off. But over the past 20 years I've dedicated myself to mastering technology. Now I'm proud to call myself a self-taught tech geek. 

I'm a geek who still speaks the language of normal human beings. I don't use a lot of jargon and fancy words that the average person doesn't understand.

I understand how frustrating it can be when the instructor goes too fast or leaves out critical steps in the learning process. That's why I make sure to clearly demonstrate each step for you visually, so you can follow along starting from the very beginning and going along until you've reached mastery.

I am here to guide you on your way to success. You can contact me at any step of the way for assistance. Let me know when you're struggling with a concept and I'll get right back to you to keep you moving in the right direction.

I'm always happy to help.  I believe in you, and I'm here to support you in your learning process.

1. course found bookish type , read and learn . 2. Should have more explanations along with examples 3. should have practice tutorials along with solutions where one can go and access tutorials and cross check with the solutions . otherwise in detail EXCEL-VBA videos available on Youtube free.

By AvW Consulting s.r.o. Andre van Wyk on 4/28/2020

One of the best courses available for a beginner like me. I appreciated Gillian's teaching style and coverage of the topics at hand. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to get into VBA.

By Robert Wilby on 4/11/2020

Great course for anyone who is new to VBA or like me returning to VBA after a long time away. Topics were clearly discussed and explained in detail. Starts with the basics and from this goes on to build a form and continues to explain speeding up code as well as good practice in debugging. A nice addition was a demonstration of how to create a function and apply it. All in all, good tips and well presented. Support is very good too, if you have any questions.
