The Excel Skills for Beginners:Essentials has been a boon for me as a beginner. Although I had some prior experience with excel, this course helped me consolidate my previous skills I had with excel and helped me add new skills to my repertoire too! Would heartily recommend this course to everyone.

It was a very informative course. And I enjoyed the challenges. I now understand how effective excel in daily life. I am up to more challenges, and I'll jump into the next level of the course and aim to finish it. The goal is to learn and use the knowledge at work so I can be an efficient employee.

Excellent lessons on the essentials of Excel! I had a great review of previously learned information and a surprising amount of very new-to-me information. I will definitely use this information from this course on a daily basis for my job. I look forward to advancing to the Intermediate I course!

Although this course only includes the essentials of Excel, I learned a lot in a short amount of time. I also appreciate the flexibility in completing the course. I was able to save my work if I had to step away or if I ran out of time. The videos and straightforward and easy to follow along with.

Very Interesting Course, and tbh The instructors were quite helpful and it was fun. Not at all boring

The quiz, assessment were very interesting. I polished my skills more here

Additionally you will get to learn Aussie accents of different words ;)

if you are a new to excel you will learn a TONNN!!

I have tried some excel courses, none of them were as clear and concise as this one. I strongly recommend this course to everyone who wants to learn Excel in proper order with beneficial tests and examples. It is crystal clear that there were thousands of thoughts and expertise behind this course.

The course is so planned that it is easy to understand and the pace is great for someone who is working or studying and has a tight schedule as the practice videos are for 5 to 6 minutes and practice test does not take more than 15 minutes. I am really satisfied with the course and will do more .

Excellent course. I just wished that instead of a lot of questions like true and false, for each week they should have had a couple of long quizzes similar to that final test after the 6th week. Overall satisfied though and it was a great refresher since I haven't really used Excel for years now.

This was a nice refresher for someone who uses Excel a lot, but doesn't do a lot of heavy data work. It will help you learn all of the tips and tricks to get your work done faster and more efficiently. It's a nice way to whet your appetite for the Intermediate courses which I highly recommend too.

First of all I want to thank Coursera for making me eligible for financial aid and let me complete this wonderful course. This course is pretty challenging for me but the way the teachers took it step by step is marvelous . Alot of love for the teachers. As a schoolboy this is my big achievement

I am thrilled to announce that this course is all you need to jumpstart your career in any engineering field that require extensive excel use. I do not want to talk about value here, there are a lot of practice tasks that are well equipped with what they teach you in the lectures. I am satisfied.

Muy entretenido , simple de entender especialmente si nunca has interiorizados las herramientas de excel recomendado para persona que inician .Los videos de la clases son cortos y te ayudan mucho.Además, los exámenes son prácticos y refuerzan los aprendido .Personalmente me gusto el curso 10 /10.

It was a wonderful experience learning basic skills of Excel which is so essential in today's time. i now feel confident about using Excel and making the task at hand simpler. Thank you for curating such a wonderful course and giving many people like me the confidence to use a package like Excel.

Wow, this is a very well made course! Not easy, not hard, just the right amount of challenge. Very clear & comprehensive instructions. I hold Macquarie University in high regard because of their top quality content! Great Job Dr. Prashan, Nicky & any others who contributed to this awesomeness! 😊

It is worth a five star rating. You have left no room for candidate to pass without learning /understanding / practicing properly / in right proportion. However his /her expertise still lies in his practice.

Bravo team. Excellent way of teaching that too online when someone may cheat for passing.

I enjoyed learning the basics of Excel. The faculty of Maquire has fabulously handled each lesson. The final assessment was a great learning exercise covering almost all the practical concepts that were discussed. This course has given me confidence and removed my fear to deal with spreadsheets.

I liked the way the course it's organized. I already had previous experience with Excel, but still this course gave me the chance to reinforce the basics and to learn some new tips and tricks, It's great that you can keep learning anywhere, anytime- There's no excuse to stop learning. Thank you.

It was my first online courses ever! I was a bit afraid to be honest. And 0 knowledges about excel. Not anymore! It was amazing experience, I've learnt a lot and I am so happy about that. It was very easy to understand the context, really interesting Videos and Tests. Practice makes permanent!

This course is very important and teaches you all the essentials and basics that everyone needs in his work or daily life. After finishing this course I become more professional using Excel and now, I can do my tasks in very short time, so I will impress my manager at work. Thank you very much.

I am an engineering student and this is absolutely perfect for what I am trying to acheive and advance my knowledge in! I am so grateful I ran into this course on here. I have tried other courses online (not through Coursera) and they just don't get into the detailing that this course gives me!

Thorough coverage of the basic terminology, navigational skills, and baseline understandings needed to begin growing your Excel know-how. My work has led to a lot of self-teaching so much of this was review, but there were some excellent time-savers and explanations that I'm glad I didn't miss!

I loved this course! I really enjoyed how Prashan and Nicky explain things and how they encourage us to do what's necessary to learn. I already had some experience with Excel, but this Essentials course allowed me to fill some gaps. Thank you so much! And see you in the Intermediate I course :)

totally manageable! This is presented in bite-sized chunks that allows for quick assimilation. The only place I felt slightly overwhelmed was in the comprehensive final, but still pulled off 100%. Found the instructors very likable. The information was relevant and meaningful to the work I do.

Indeed, I am very happy that I attended this course with the amount of beautiful and abundant information gained in this course. The course is effectively, beautifully and organized so that I acquire skills sequentially without trouble. You are the best. Thank you, and kind regards from Egypt

Initially I thought the course is for absolute beginners but as the course progessed I got to know many functionalities of excel which I was not using before. The content of the course was crisp and upto the point and looking forward to completing the next three courses offered by university.
