My colleague and I found this course very useful. It helped us understand more about excel and how to use it more effectively in our workplace. It was very informative and easy to follow. Nigel was very clear in his instruction and helpful when we ‘didn’t quite get it’!!
Found the course very good, easy to follow which was my biggest fear. Thank you Nigel for making it easier to understand.
