I ventured out of my comfort zone when I started this course. I was pleasantly surprised how well I picked up on the lessons and did on the assignments and quizzes. I put in more hours than what was advertised for the course, but I always expect that when I try to learn to do more with Excel. I now know what I should study next if I’m going to keep learning more about this program.

Great course, gives plenty of tools for solving problems you encounter at work. Too bad some questions seem to be glitchy and there seem to be minor compatibility issues between Excel versions but maybe that's just me. Also, it would have been nice to do extra practice with INDEX and MATCH functions. Otherwise it would have been a perfect experience.

It is a great course, could learn a lot and great spreadsheets for practice.

However, I found some downside too. Some of the spreadsheet broken the formula on older version of excel. Couldn't find solution for the assessment so can't find out what the mistake was. It is easy to find out on some parts but where calculation needs more difficult.

Pros:

The videos were very well done and the practice sheets and quizzes very useful.

Cons:

The forum does not provide enough help. Classmates are either indifferent or afraid to participate. There should be a designated people to oversee the different forums and make sure the questions get answered if the forum is going to be useful.

The course was well-paced and instructed. I found it frustrating that there were a number of concepts that were mentioned but not explained, but were still on the tests. The supplementary resources were not sufficient in teaching this additional concepts either. Otherwise it was a great course for getting started in excel.

Learned so many useful formulas from this course that I am already using at work to automate certain reports and save my colleagues time. I can't wait to see what the rest of the Specialization has to offer. Some of the test questions are broken though and the expected answer is not replicable, which is really frustrating.

I really enjoyed this course, however it was a bit challenging to work on Office 365. In week 5, some of the documents provided just showed errors therefore it was not possible to understand the formulaes. Regardless, I have learnt a lot and use many of the new formulaes in my dat-today work.

Excellent teachers, extremely clear, organized and course well thought out! Five very busy weeks of technical tuition, I just wished that the teachers could have given more examples and more formulas to work with during tuition. Highly recommended class, even for beginners in Excel!

Though it was a very tasking and challenging course, it was also interesting and easy to understand. The videos and quiz sections were very helpful. I am glad to pass the final assessment.

I am looking forward to the next stage which is data visualization in Excel.

Thankyou

I'm not sure if it is my computer but some things does not work just like in the video. In week 5 151 sheet I even tried copying the formula from the solution sheet to the freshly opened practice sheet and the output is not like the one I've seen on the video.

I learned a lot about tables and functions! Sometimes it felt like I was not learning the course material and needed more practice than what was provided. Overall, a really wonderful course to learn more about using Excel for data analysis. :))

Guter Kurs für Basiswissen, 1 Stern Abzug für die katastrophale Formatierung des final assessments. Es hat 4h gedauert, den ständigen Fehlermeldungen der eigentlich richtig eingegebenen Formeln auf die Schliche zu kommen. Bitte beheben!

This is a very solid introductory course to MS Excel since it touches a lot of useful parts of the software but the assessments need to provide better help for those who need more effort to fully grasp the concepts and apply them.

The course was great up until the final exam. The excel spreadsheet that you had to download to answer the questions had multiple prepopulated formula errors that you had to correct yourself in order to get the correct answers.

Very practical, easy to follow. Excel broken down to the most simplest of languages for anyone to follow and easily understand. The assignments and loads of data to work on is valuable. By far the best in my opinion.

This course helped me a lot to learn the excel fundamentals which I haven't so far. I need to workout more exercises to gain experience . By the help of this course I'll be able to workout the data at excel. Thanks.

Overall this was a super solid course. There are a few problems that aren't doable or a few quiz/assessment questions that don't give you the correct answer. But overall, I'm fairly pleased with this course

Some contents of the Course should be updated and corrected (esepcially the final assesment)), but the overall aqcuired knowledge satisfied my expectations and i think i will keep on with the next course

I enjoyed the course, but since I do not use excel on a regular basis I found it very hard.

I will use the leaned functions as much as I can apply to my excel projects.

Thanks for an interesting time.

I liked too much the way the teachers explein themselves and the fact that I can practice with homeworks. Really enjoy how I was getting more knoledge and looked like I really know Excel every week.

A very well structured course with easy to follow examples. I would give it a 4.5 because there is some error in the workbook and quizzes but apparently, it hasn't been changed despite to complaints

Overall a very clear course, only negative things are some of the questions are not coherent with the correct answer so people have to follow their guts on whats wrong, the question or the answer.

OVERALL COURSE WAS WELL WORTH IT! HAD A FEW AREAS WHERE THEY DIDN'T TEACH EVERYTHING YOU NEEDED TO KNOW, AND SOME OF THE QUIZ ANSWERS WERE INCORRECT. BUT OVERALL VERY PLEASED WITH THE COURSE.

This excellent course for learnig Excel fundamentals like Text, Date, Lookup functions and Tables.

It will be useful for people handling large amoun tof data and its manipulation in computer.

I liked the course because it was a great mix between learning and practicing. In the end, I have the feeling to have digested about 80% so that I can apply it in other contexts :-)
