It's all in the title. Covers important basics throughout and while I knew a lot of things already, it was covering that stuff I didn't know in order to create a more solid baseline for continued study.

Good course to get the basics. I thought that I had an intermediate level and decided to do this test as a refresher session, but I ended up realizing that I was missing A LOT of the basics from Excel.

I thought the course was very well done. It catered to the beginner users and I thought it should. I will be taking the additional courses to see how far my learning of Excel can go, but so far so good.

Buen curso, efectivamente pude repasar de manera rápida algunos puntos básicos del manejo del Excel. Si usas Excel en tu dia a dia podría ser bastante básico y recomiendo realizar un nivel más avanzado.
