Building Computer Skills to Enable Success
Participants on this Microsoft Excel Introduction 1 day course will gain an understanding of the fundamental principles of Excel, including creating and navigating workbooks, using simple formulas, before moving on to formatting workbooks for presentation and printing.
You will be given a solid foundation of skills upon which to build.
The course assumes no prior knowledge of Excel Introduction, however, people with limited exposure to the software and those who are currently entering data into spreadsheets created by others will also benefit from attending this course.
People feel more comfortable using their own laptop, since they will be familiar with its layout and options. Having access to all of your applications and customisations will come in handy through the training.
If you don’t have a laptop, please let us know beforehand so we can supply one on the training day.
You don’t need any previous experience with Microsoft Excel to attend this training.
This course is designed for people who haven’t used the program before.
If you have a basic understanding of how to use computers, and how to navigate the desktop, including opening and saving files, you should be good to go.
Once you’ve completed this course, you can progress to our Excel Intermediate course.

Self Paced Assisted Learning combines the best of independent learning with the best of trainer assisted learning.
This unique approach to learning works as follows:
Each participant is provided with a training manual for a given application and level, and they work through a series of exercises.
If they get stuck or don’t understand a concept, the trainer is immediately available to help them understand the issue at hand and to give examples of how to implement the feature or application.
It is not uncommon to see one person working on an Excel Advanced manual while the person beside them is doing a Word Introduction, and another is working on something else.
The role of the trainer in the Self Paced environment is quite different to their role in a typical classroom. Even when each participant is working well unassisted, the trainer will be actively monitoring their progress, providing feedback and encouragement as well as fine-tuning the learning process. There is usually little time to “take it easy” as the trainer works to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of learning.
Self Paced Assisted Learning is very personalised, with the interactions generally being around individuals and small groups.
These sessions can be broken into 1.5-hour blocks of time, allowing up to 4 sessions in a day, thus allowing a larger number of people to attend for shorter time periods.
We pack more useful information into our Webinar Training Sessions than a squirrel stuffs acorns for winter.
Ditch the sink-or-swim approach to new technology. Our Webinar Sessions are your team’s virtual lifeline to tech proficiency.
These interactive online gatherings transform intimidating rollouts into engaging adventures. Our expert trainers don’t just introduce change – they help make your team embrace it. We explain the ‘why’ behind new systems, turning sceptics into champions with concise, high-impact briefings.
Forget dull lectures. Our sessions spark lively discussions and showcase features with contagious enthusiasm. Whether your team is office-based or remote, we bring the learning to them.
Investing in training isn’t just smart; it’s crucial. Our Webinar Sessions are your compass in the sea of technological change.
Upgrading systems? Migrating platforms? Introducing new tech? We’ve got you covered.
Let’s face it, expecting your staff to “figure it out” on their own is a recipe for chaos, confusion, and probably a few broken keyboards. Relying on this approach is like using “password123” for your bank account, technically possible, but you’re just asking for trouble.
Enter Seminar Training, the GPS for your technologically challenged employees!
Perfect for large groups needing to get up to speed, our seminars address organisational changes, explaining the rationale and benefits. We encourage audience interaction, generating discussions that’ll make your team feel engaged.
These sessions provide concise overviews of new systems and features, delivering targeted briefings with minimal disruption. It’s like speed dating, but instead of potential partners, your employees meet productivity boosters!
Our expert trainers don’t just demonstrate key functionalities, they perform them with the flair of a Vegas magician. To maximize the learning impact, many clients complement our seminars with our Roving Training program.
Whether you call them seminars or awareness sessions, when you’re upgrading, migrating, or introducing new technology, we’re here to save the day and your team will be begging for the next software update.

Roving Training brings expert facilitators directly to your workspace, either in-person or virtually, to address specific training needs.
Looking for training that’s as unique as your team? You might stumble upon a few buzzwords like “Roving Training”, “On-Demand Training”, “Floor Walking”, “Corporate Trubleshooting”, “Floater”, or “Roaming Training Services”.
Basically, they’re all just fancy ways of saying, “On-the-spot instruction tailored to specific needs”.
Roving Training is a 1 on 1 or very small group training session which is generally scheduled for short timeframe on a specific subject.
Typically, these training sessions are structured by allocating time slots/appointments with individuals. The topics covered throughout the session do not have to be at the same level or software package.
Roving Training offers the benefit of immediate, hands-on support right where and when it’s needed, ensuring that learning is directly applicable and highly relevant to real-time challenges.
In this example, Sarah, the office superhero has scheduled blocks of time for her colleagues. For instance, James is scheduled at 9:30am for half an hour to work on Pivot Tables. After James gets his Excel fix, the trainer visits Ellen at 10:00am for an hour to help solve a problem she is having with Photoshop. The trainer then continues visiting each person in the schedule, addressing their individual requirements.
Sarah also handles training during software upgrades and rollouts with one of our nifty tactics called floor walking. This involves the trainer roaming around the office to provide instant, on-the-spot support for any tech hiccups.
It’s like having a tech wizard who appears out of nowhere when you need them the most, no magic wand required, just a trainer with lots of expertise and a friendly smile!
Upgrade your colleagues from “Control+Alt+Defeat” to “Tech+Savvy+Elite”!
Attention all tech-challenged teams and software-phobic departments! Is your office filled with cold sweats at the mere mention of pivot tables? Does the phrase “software update” send shivers down your spine like a horror movie jump scare? Fear not, our Group Training Courses are here to transform your tech terrors into laugh-out-loud learning adventures!

A standard training course takes around 6 hours, plus scheduled breaks to ensure everyone stays refreshed and ready to absorb more. We promise not to make you do jumping jacks during these breaks… unless you really want to.
The start time of the training is completely negotiable, but typically, the training time slot will be 9:00am – 4:00pm.
This turns the training day into an enjoyable and productive fun run rather than a sprint. Don’t worry, the only medals awarded will be for “Most Enthusiastic Learner”
Half-Day Group Training Sessions offer a focused exploration of your chosen subject, providing a compact yet impactful experience that’s ideal for teams looking to dive into topics efficiently.

A standard training course takes around 3 hours to complete, which includes a short break at the halfway point. Don’t worry, we won’t make you solve riddles to earn your break—unless that’s part of the training, of course!
The start time of the training is completely negotiable but typically, the training time slot will either be 9:00 am – 12:00 pm or 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm. Whether you’re an early bird or a post-lunch learner, we’ve got you covered.
