Advanced Excel training courses Cape Town

We will be running a public Microsoft Advanced Excel traadvanced-excel-training-courses-cape-townining course in Cape Town covering advanced Excel functions, pivot tables and graphing.

The course will be held at the Rockwell Hotel in Greenpoint. We are offering a special 10% discount for early bird bookings. The course is over 3 days but you are able to either attend all 3 days or else attend the modules that are included in the course.

  • Day 1 will cover pivot tables and graphing

  • Deleting unnecessary lines from databases
  • Removing duplicate entries from lists
  • Joining excel databases together e.g. your invoice listings with your address listings
  • Convert rows into columns (easily)
  • Separate text in a cell e.g. names into first name and surname
  • Join cells together to form a single cell e.g. names, sms messages, mail merging
  • Convert dates from american style (mm/dd/yyyy) to ‘normal’ style (dd/mm/yyyy) with one or two clicks
  • Calculate the working days in a year
  • Categories lists into bands e.g. employee rankings, basket sizes, product types
