About the Course

"Everyday Excel, Part 1" is aimed at learners who are seeking to learn Excel from the ground up. No experience with Excel is necessary. While this course is meant for beginners of Excel, advanced users will undoubtedly pick up new skills and tools. This course is the first part of a three-part series and Specialization that focuses on teaching introductory through very advanced techniques and tools in Excel. In this course (Part 1), you will: 1) learn how to effectively navigate around the Excel environment; 2) edit and format Excel worksheets; 3) implement basic to advanced Excel functions (including financial, logical, and text functions); 4) learn how to manage data sets (filter, remove duplicates, consolidate data, sort data, and validate data); and 5) learn how to effectively visualize data through scatterplots, column charts, and pie charts. New to Excel? That is entirely fine! This course is meant to be fun, thought-provoking, and appeal to a wide audience. No prior knowledge in programming nor advanced math skills are necessary. The course is organized into 5 Weeks (modules). To pass each module, you'll need to pass a mastery quiz and complete a problem solving assignment. This course is unique in that the weekly assignments are completed in-application (i.e., on your own computer in Excel), providing you with valuable hands-on training....

That was extremely helpful, I liked it so much, I liked everything about it from the breaking down of new subjects, literally someone with zero experience in excel can understand and use these things

I have taken other excel classes and they always seem to go off into advanced formulas and problem solving that really doesn't match anything that I will actually use. This class is really exciting in that I can see lots of different uses for almost every formula, shortcut and example in our exercises. Thanks!

The instructor was very clear and provided meaningful examples throughout the course. I appreciated having the excel files to practice with along side him during the screencasts. I feel even though I had a good grasp of excel prior to the course, I learned about a lot of new features, particularly re: formulas

This Excel course is of high quality and provides a comprehensive understanding of various Excel functions and formulas. Although the assignment may be difficult, practicing with the accompanying videos can help solve it. It is recommended to use the provided file while practicing, as shown in the videos.

I knew basic excel functions, but this course has really expanded my knowledge. I feel more comfortable doing complex functions. The quizes were no pushovers, but in the end, they helped me understand how excel executes its functions. The instructor really had learners in mind while designing this course.

I knew absolutely nothing about Excel before taking this course; today I know way more than the average

Excel users. This course will definitely challenge you and make you learn intermediate-advanced Excel! I recommend it 100% only if you're willing to commit to a fast-paced, somewhat-difficult course!

This course was one of the best course in which a lame person can also learn excel and master this MS Office application to make sure that he excels high in his future. All Kudos to our instructor Prof. Nuttleman to his great efforts and hard work to make this course super informative and interesting.

I really liked the small, easy to complete chunks. Sometimes I would only have a few minutes free during the day, but I would be able to complete a full episode, which was nice. Charlie is a very clear presenter and the exercises were practical. I wish I would have taken this a couple of years ago.

It was a beautiful beginning to the multiverse of ever expanding excel. It was a privilege to learn from Charlie Nuttleman Sir. Would be a dream to learn from him in person but the beauty delivered via screencast makes up for the connection. Would recommend to anyone on the path of learning excel.

This is a great intro course for someone just starting with excel or someone like me who has been using excel for years but always reactionary. This course helped me learn more about what excel is capable of. Charlies videos and homework are great, well thought out, thorough, quick, and practical!

This has been a great introduction for Excel beginners like me. Challenging but not impossible! Even if I am not a native english speaker I have been able to understand and apply everything Charlie Nuttelman had developed in this course. I can't wait for Part 2! Thank you, professor Charlie.

I have taken 30+ courses offered by CU Boulder and I think this is the best in terms of instruction quality. The instructor is AMAZING at what he does. My advice for him is to start an ASMR YouTube channel because his voice is so pleasant to listen to. I had a lot of fun taking this course!

El curso es muy bueno y muy bien estructurado, contenía todo lo que necesitaba aprender en este momento. La única dificultad a veces fue el idioma, ya que hay fórmulas que cambian mucho del inglés al español, y debía buscar traducción para cada una de ellas. Pro lo demás, todo fue muy bueno.

the course was very good and is very much helpful in understanding the basics of excel. charles sir is a very good mentor to teach. it would be more effective if discussion forums are more interactive than how they are now. This course really helped me to get through the excel basics..

The course is really good. The chapters are taught very well and the assignment given is always a challenging one and interesting to work on. It just helps you to sum up wat u learnt from that particular week. Would recommend everyone as it is easily understandable for beginners like me.

It is a great course. The assignments are very challenging. Unlike other courses, the assignments test your knowledge and understanding of the content that has been taught in that particular week. I got stuck on a couple of assignments but finally got through it with persistence.
