Microsoft Excel 2021 Training Courses


NameDescription
Rolling Forecasts with Excel This course is designed to equip participants with the concepts and tools from which a model can be prepared which can be changed easily and automatically as business change requirements dictate. Changing external economic conditions can be reflected in KPI's easily and quickly and this process iterated continuously (e.g. every quarter). The rolling aspect implies that the model produced during the day (an 18 month rolling forecast) is quickly adaptable to changing business circumstances and can be run as often as required.
Supercharge your Excel skills with Python and OpenPyXl This course is for people who are proficient at Excel and want to add in the power of Python, the world's best programming language for data analytics.
