Excel training reviews

Excel classes - 5 rating

Excel classes rating: 4.9 stars from 7150 reviewers

"I've had experiences with various Excel training courses and Chris is by far and away the best instructor. He was clear, concise and to the point. He provided us with exactly what we needed. I will definitely be back."

"The class was wonderful and Chris is an awesome teacher! I will definitely recommend my fellow finance co-workers to take his VBA class to teach them the works behind excel. I believe that learning VBA excel coding is crucial to efficiently perform data analysis in a quick and easy manner."

"This course was incredibly valuable to my work and what I do there. Instructor Mike was engaging and equally encouraged us to engage, and I appreciated the humor he incorporated which made the class even more interesting. I would happily take another course with Training Connection with similar instructors."

"This is one of the best trainings I have been to. Everything from the topics to examples and discussion was completely relatable and real life. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and kept us focused. He made it a really fun course and I was not expecting that. "

"I retook the class, and it was just as great as the last time! Chris is a great teacher. We covered the same general topics but was able to grasp the concepts better since i was already exposed to them. It was nice to have new classmates ask different questions so we could get a better understanding of real-life examples. Thank you!"

Is Excel Online Training the Right Excel Training for Me?

 

Yep, it’s the million-dollar question (actually… we wrote a Blog post about just how many $’s you could earn with Excel Skills). But should it be In-Class or Online? Which one is right for you? Well, we can say straight up, that the best tuition would always be MS Excel Classroom Based Training (take a look at the page for more reasons why), just think about it, if online teaching was indeed better then why did the nation go back to class after Covid? It’s just more productive with less distractions, and being the gregarious species that we are, its simply more collaborative and rewarding. That’s not to say that Online Classes are the wrong fit for you. If you cannot afford to drive or fly to a classroom somewhere around our huge beautiful US of A (in our case it’s LA) or you only have limited time, and if you’re the reasonably disciplined type with great work ethic… and you can leave your mobile phone on silent (sorry, what did we just say?!) then our Online Classes would absolutely be right for you. Over the past 20 years we’ve picked up a thing or two about teaching and tuition so regardless of which one you select, you’ll be looked after and skilled up! Here’s everything you need to know about our Excel Online Courses to help you make the right decision…

What are the best Online Excel Courses on offer?

Firstly, all our Online Courses are live, instructor-led courses tailored to suit every skill level, so you’ll be well covered whichever one you choose:

 

How much do Online Excel Training Programs cost?

Most courses including ours are priced at:

We also price match and we offer package deals and private group training options – this is a great way to save if you’re planning on taking multiple courses! And you can spread them out over the year using your discount allowance for multiple courses.

How long is a typical Excel Online Class?

One day, that’s it. Running from morning to late afternoon or early evening depending on your time zone, with a 30-45-minute lunch break. Whether you’re on Pacific, Central, or Eastern time, we’ve got you covered.

Will I receive a nice shiny Certificate?

Absolutely! At the end of your Online Excel Course, you’ll receive a professional certificate of completion to showcase your new skills to your boss or recruitment agency.

Are there free online Excel Training Resources?

Sure there are, YouTube is great like that. But we specialize in paid, live instructor-led training to ensure you receive top-quality, personalized attention. While there are no free resources (other than what our generous trainer Kristian has added to our Blog), our one stop, hands-on learning with our fully vetted, professional trainers, and real-time interaction make our courses well worth the investment.

How do Online Excel Classes compare to In-Person Training?

Our online classes are designed to feel as much like in-person classroom training as possible. You’ll enjoy real-time interaction with expert instructors, live demonstrations, hands-on exercises, and one-on-one assistance - all from the comfort of your home or office.

What prior skills do I need before I sign up for my Excel Online Course?

For Level 1, no prior experience is needed - it’s totally beginner-friendly (in other words, if you can work a calculator your good to go). For intermediate and advanced levels, having basic Excel knowledge will help you to really hit the ground running.

Can I get course material after completing the Online Excel Training?

Yes, we’re giving them away! Not because we’ve got too many, but because they’re really helpful to you and included in the cost. You’ll receive an up-to-date training manual that serves as a handy reference you can access at any time, especially great to revisit after the course ends.

Do employers value Online Excel Certifications?

Yes, anything that states that you've taken the time to skill up is a valuable asset to show off and be proud of. And employers certainly value certifications from reputable training providers like Training Connection (that’s us btw).

If you’re ready to take your Excel skills to the next level, or if you have more questions, visit us at Training Connection. We’d love add you to our happy, successful family!
