    This was a fun, yet challenging course. The information is presented very well. Week 5 information comes off as very easy as demonstrated by instructors. However, week 5 took multiple reviews to completely grasp the concepts.

    I take part to that course because I wanted to refresh my knowledge.

    In fact it was worth it. And I'm glad that the course can attend at a fair price, because only two functions were new. All other was really just a refresher.

    There are minors errors in the assesments but holistically is way better than anothers topics cover on Excel Business Specialization. I'd say that is more updated and explain in detail compared than the old one.

    Muy completo el curso. Solamente que en los cuestionarios sugeriría que dieran una mejor retroalimentación en caso de estar mal y redactar un poco mejor las preguntas para saber qué es lo que se pide exactamente.

    Nice and structured beginner course on Excel. Explanation by teacher was clear to follow. At times a bit slow and not everything so relevant but after completion a good and thorough refresher of the basics.
