laese let me know how to donate to coursera
Very good introduction to some more advanced Excel functionalities. Although more variety of student exercises is needed to fully comprehend the growing familiarity with the tools presented.
Amazing course! I love excel so for me the 'learning by seeing and doing' - demo approach really resonated. The workbook shared are also detailed for guidance and future reference.
Nice, especially part with dashboards.
I was pretty familiar with all techniques, but it good to have an understanding of what big company is expecting from you.
