This will not only help solidify your understanding but also help you master your finances.

The curriculum is presented in basic building blocks so that you can build your knowledge step-by-step.

We start from the very beginning by teaching you Excel basics and fundamentals. We then dive into advanced topics so you can make good decisions on data manipulation, analysis, and visualization, and tools for use in any of your future Excel projects.

By the end of this course, we guarantee you're going to love Excel. It will make you more effective and efficient at your job, no matter your role or industry.


Here is what the course will cover to take you from Zero to Excel Mastery:

1. EXCEL 101

You'll learn about the fundamentals of Excel, such as formulas, working with multiple worksheets & workbooks, and utilizing Excel for data entry. With just the fundamentals, you'll be able to manipulate, format, and prepare data for analysis. You'll also start your first exercise to practice and solidify your knowledge.

2. FILTERING & SORTING DATA

You'll learn to filter and sort data sets, and how to further prepare data sets for analysis and visualization.

3. EXCEL FORMULAS 101

You'll dive into the magic of Excel formulas for text, dates, and arithmetic purposes. We'll also start the Budget Project where you will start applying your knowledge to creating a personal budget and expense tracker tool that will allow you to masterfully track and analyze your personal finances.

4. CRUNCHING NUMBERS WITH EXCEL FUNCTIONS

You'll start learning how to analyze data with arithmetic functions including calculating median and standard deviation. Throughout your career, you'll need to know the importance of these fundamental arithmetic functions and what they say about your data.

5. CONDITIONAL CALCULATIONS

You'll go down the rabbit hole into more advanced subjects with calculations that are conditional upon variables. The goal of Excel is to make the relationships and patterns in data pop and allow you to tell the story of complex data sets, and conditional calculations are your first step towards doing that.

6. DATE & TIME FUNCTIONS

You'll learn how to add some pizzaz to your spreadsheets using the DATE and TIME Excel functions and analyze data across one of the most important variables that you'll want to consider when analyzing your data: changes across time.

7. TEXT FUNCTIONS

Ever receive a data dump and need to somehow sort through it all? Here you're going to learn how to pull out pieces of text data from a data set so that you can sort, organize, and ultimately analyze it using Text Excel functions. Large, messy data sets are present in almost every industry, so this is going to come in handy.

8. LOGICAL & LOOKUP FUNCTIONS

You'll start working with the magical VLOOKUP function! VLOOKUP works a lot like a phone book, where you start with the piece of data you know, like someone's name, in order to find out what you don't know, like their phone number. Nifty, huh?

9. MODELING IN EXCEL

Now the tables will turn (so to speak!) and you'll begin to learn from our data! This'll be done by learning how to model data. Modeling allows you to take messy data, learn from it, and make decisions from it. We'll also help you model your own finances in the Budget Project.

10. DATA VISUALIZATION

You'll learn to tell a story with our data using graphs. As humans we're often visual learners. We can't just look at a spreadsheet of numbers, we need to visualize it in order to separate the signal from the noise. Here you will learn how to do just that, so you can tell a persuasive story with your data that will influence how you (and your clients or boss!) make decisions.

11. WORKING WITH STRUCTURED DATA

You're going to learn to present & structure data using tables. We'll look at how we can use tables to present complex data, including external data and utilizing ranges, in a cohesive and structured manner.

12. PIVOT TABLES

You'll be introduced to one of our favourite parts of Excel: Pivot Tables. A Pivot Table is a table of grouped values that aggregates the individual items of a more extensive table within one or more discrete categories. This summary might include sums, averages, or other statistics, which the pivot table groups together using a chosen aggregation function applied to the grouped values. Sounds complex? It doesn't have to be. We'll break it down step-by-step so you learn exactly how powerful Pivot Tables are and how you can create them yourself.

13. MACROS & VBA

You'll learn about Macros and VBA, which stands for "Visual Basic for Applications" and are used to create custom user-generated functions and speed up manual tasks by creating automated processes - essentially to write your own code in Excel. Once you learn to do this, the possibilities are endless...


This course is not about making you just watch along without understanding the principles so that when you are done with the course you don’t know what to do other than watch another tutorial... No!

This course will push you and challenge you to go from an absolute beginner in Excel and turn you into an Excel wizard.
