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

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..

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.

Professor Nuttelman has done a great job of designing this course. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn excel skills for their work or their business, or to anyone looking to build on the basic skills they already have. I learned a lot from this course!

I had a very rudimentary grasp on Excel with limited time spent using it. This course was an excellent deep-dive into so much of what Excel can do. Very informative. Challenging quizzes and assignments. I enjoyed it very much and will do the other parts of the course as well.

I absolutely loved this course, it was very useful and interesting. Even when I felt like I already know how to use Excel. I can't wait to start Part 2. How each of the Assignments were macro-enabled was awesome, and I felt like Charlie was in real-time grading my assignment.

Great course! What I liked about the course is that every screencast is to the point with data and clear explanations, the exercises in each screencast help to reinforce the lessons and the weekly assignments are a challenge to go a little bit further. Highly recomended.

Quality instruction, videos, and starter files to help you follow along with the lessons. I've become much more comfortable with a program that, before today, I hardly use. Plenty of real world applications for Excel. I love it and can't wait for the remaining courses.

This is by far one of the most perfectly balanced and targeted basic IT courses I have done. Very nicely paced and covers a good spread of the features available. I have been able to apply many if the lessons into my day to day work already and I look forward to Part 2.

I already knew some excel. But still, there was a lot of new information I got from this course. It ignited a few old memories and lit a few new ones. A beginner can smoothly sail through this course with much ease and come out on the other side as an excel enthusiast

Wow! This course started very basic, but quickly progressed to more complex tasks. The final assignment looked difficult at first, but then I realized I knew how to do it! Charlie is a great teacher, and I highly recommend this course to ANYONE using Microsoft Excel.
