I got what I was expecting from this session. Although we did simple examples, we touched on several foundational processes and a good collection of tips that will definitely make my life easier…also, now I’ll read the descriptions under each tool, as some support has been there waiting to be used. I look forward continuing through more advanced sessions and will also encourage my team to participate on similar training. Alex, thanks for your patience and dedication to the session, while making it very engaging. Kind Regards, Iván

Very detailed course. As someone who is just starting to use Excel I feel that this was quite difficult. I have completed the beginner's course and the jump from that course to this one was overwhelming to me. The presenter was excellent and very patient and was making sure we were all happy with each segment.

I really enjoyed this course. Although I felt out of my depth as I don't necessarily use some of the topics covered. I feel like I should have done the Beginner Course first. Duane was delight to have as a teacher :)
