Micro learning sessions

The Microsoft Excel micro learning sessions are designed to give you an insight into useful features of Excel.

There are currently two hour and a half sessions available. The sessions are held on back-to-back days and hosted online via Microsoft Teams. To get the most out of the training, attendees are encouraged to attend both sessions.

Session format

The sessions are broken down into three parts.

Part 1: Show and tell

The trainer will demonstrate, in real-time, some quick tips that can help improve your productivity when it comes to using the software.
