Debbie is a very engaging and dynamic trainer, and the class was exactly what I was hoping for. I am self-taught in Excel so this class really filled in the gaps for me.
The instructor was amazing and the overall experience was great. I had very little knowledge of Excel, but after today, I know a lot more and even understand certain things I wasn't 100% sure about.
Highly recommend this course for a good overview of Excel. This was exactly what I needed to be more confident in operating in a finance firm.
Taking this Excel class made a lot of missing links fit. I had multiple "ah ha" moments.
The class was very beneficial, and I am excited to use these new skills in my job. Ade is an absolutely fantastic instructor; not only is he an expert in all Microsoft tools, but he is also a patient and thorough teacher.
Amazing teacher! He is understanding and will take the time to make sure you understand the material and why it happens. He also makes the class time fly with his jokes that match the material.
Debbie is very enthusiastic about Excel. Excel is her passion, and it shows in her engaging training.
For any beginner looking to Excel in Excel, look no further. You've found your golden key!
Debbie is an amazing instructor who is capable of training any student. She pays attention to everyone in the class, and she is very friendly and cordial, with the desire to help us every minute.
This training was like Christmas morning for the Excel-curious. Debbie Cunningham is an excellent instructor and gives very practical information in a fun and professional way. I literally learned 5 new things in the first 10 minutes. So cool!
I was really impressed with Debbie's teaching skills. She is honestly the best Excel instructor that I have had.
Time well spent! Jeannette was lovely, she explained the topic well, and she helped when we got lost.
The written and verbal instructions were easy to follow, allowing me to quickly master the basic Excel functions and tools. I would recommend this class to others.
Enjoyed taking this class! The instructor was very knowledgeable, easy to understand, and gave examples that were relevant to what we were doing.
Glad I took this class. It really enforced concepts in Excel that I thought I knew well.
Great training and excellent instructor. Very knowledgeable.
Excel I and II have been very helpful in my new role. I work in hospital administration, and although I had some knowledge of Excel, it was extremely basic compared to all the helpful skills learned in these classes. I am already implementing some of them in my data analysis and presentation. Highly recommended!
I would recommend this class to anyone beginning to use Excel or wanting to learn more.
I started with the beginner's Excel class and cannot wait to attend the other classes offered.
Excellent experience. I would highly recommend this course for day-to-day Excel users!
I didn't realize there was so much to learn in a beginner's Excel course!
Vincent was very knowledgeable and patient with those with little or no experience with Excel. The fact that we can refer back to the document and the video will help a lot in the future.
I had a great experience with this training and learned a lot from the teacher.
I've taken an Excel class before, but this one was much more helpful. I learned some really great tips about Excel that I will be using going forward. I was pleasantly surprised that we were provided with a test spreadsheet that we could work with and apply the knowledge we were obtaining from the class.
Loved the exercises and the variety of topics. The class was well-structured and the hours flew by!

The Career Centers instructors are highly skilled communicators who really know their craft. They are wonderful about explaining and re-explaining when necessary and I never felt rushed or foolish for asking a question.
