    Learning Experience: The course includes coverage of MS Excel text and date functions, named ranges, handling multiple worksheets and workbooks, data summarisation, pivot tables and slicers and tables. The instructors and course structuring was great.
    Faculty: Ms Nikki Bull and Mr Prashan had a good hold over the topics they were covering and linked the topics to practical scenarios which helped learners to understand better The resources provided are Excel files and corresponding videos which have instructions on the problem. Once you submit all the files, you progess towards the certification.
