Event Details

Northstar Excel 3 is an instructor led class with self-guided modules that assesses a person's ability to use Microsoft Excel. It's part of the Northstar Digital Literacy program, which helps people learn basic computer skills. 

In this class, you will build upon the foundational and intermediate knowledge presented in the Microsoft Excel - Part 1 and Microsoft Excel - Part 2 courses to help you get the most of your Excel experience. The ability to collaborate with colleagues, automate complex or repetitive tasks, and use conditional logic to construct and apply elaborate formulas and functions will put the full power of Excel right at your fingertips. The more you learn about how to get Excel to do the hard work for you, the more you'll be able to focus on getting the answers you need from the vast amounts of data your organization generates.
