Excel Level 1 provides the basic concepts and skills students need to start being productive with Microsoft Excel: how to create, save, share, and print worksheets that contain various kinds of calculations and formatting. Students will benefit most from this course if they want to accomplish basic workplace tasks in Excel, or if they want to have a solid foundation for continuing on to become an Excel Expert. If they intend to take a Microsoft Office Specialist or Expert exam for Excel, this courseware is a good place to start their preparation, but they will need to continue on to other courses to be fully prepared for either exam. The course assumes students know how to use a computer, and that they're familiar with Microsoft Windows. It does not assume that they've used a different version of Excel or another spreadsheet program before.

Excel Level 2 builds on the basic concepts and skills of our Level 1 course to provide more advanced tools for analysis and presentation of complex, realistic data in Microsoft Excel: how to manage complex workbooks, build more complex functions, use data analysis tools, make an impact with powerful chart and presentation features, and collaborate with other users. Students will benefit most from this course if they want to use Excel 2019 to perform real-world tasks such as rearranging and presenting complex data. The course assumes students know how to use a computer, that they're familiar with Microsoft Windows, and that they've taken the Level 1 course or have equivalent introductory experience with Excel.

Excel Level 3 builds on the concepts and skills of our Level 1 and Level 2 courses to provide advanced tools for solving real-world problems in Microsoft Excel: lookup and decision-making functions, auditing and error-handling, array functions, date and text functions, importing and exporting, what-if-analysis, and macros. Students will benefit most from this course if they want to use Excel to perform real-world tasks such as handling and getting information from large amounts of data from sources inside out and outside of Excel, creating output that varies according to conditions, manipulating dates and text, and automating repetitive tasks. The course assumes students know how to use a computer, that they're familiar with Microsoft Windows, and that they've taken the Level 1 and Level 2 courses or have equivalent introductory experience with Excel. The exercises are more detailed and complex than those in levels 1 and 2.
