I've been taking classes here over the course of many years. Convenient location, class schedule availability, individual attention, reasonably priced. Great opportunity if you want a classroom setting.

I initially took this class for VLookups and Pivot Tables, but there were so many useful tools just for everyday tasks in the office. I would recommend this class to anyone. I'll be back for Advanced Excel. Thanks!!


Breaking Ground

The perfect boot camp to refresh my skills while also learning new, helpful tips! Great for beginners and experts alike. Would definitely take another class and recommend to other peers and colleagues.

Very interactive, great way to build skills with Excel.

Helped me distinguish my strengths and weaknesses in Excel and really advanced my skills and understanding of the software.

Uplift Education

Would highly recommend to anyone interested in improving their Excel abilities. Garfield is particularly wonderful.

I did the all day class on a Sunday. I thought it would be a long grueling day, but it was actually enjoyable and went by really fast.


Merrill Lynch

Patrick is a fantastic instructor. This was my second time taking the Excel class with him. His pace is just right, he waits for every single person in the class to finish before he moves on to the next task and doesn't over-complicate things. He's always open to explaining again and sometimes shows shortcuts while he does that. His teaching style is incredible and I'd definitely recommend him.


Macy's

Teaches tips and tools with step-by-step instructions that never leave you behind.


Idealist

Learned so many tips and tricks. Thank you!

The class session went very well. Ade does take the time to go through the lesson and allow students to ask questions.


Dept. of Environmental Protection-City of New York

Game changing! These tools will save me hundreds of hours of time at work :)

The class was extremely helpful, even if you are a heavy Excel user! I learned many processes that will help me function much more efficiently. Vincent was a fantastic teacher!

Great class and they make it super easy to learn!

Jeanette was patient and did a very good job. I like the way she taught.

I am glad that I took the class and I learned a lot of information that I am sure will make working with Excel more efficient. I would recommend the class to anyone who has never taken a class and is self-taught. The shortcuts alone that I learned will save me so much time in the future.

I will definitely encourage my department to attend this class. Very informative.

Ade was very personable and knowledgeable. He made a seven-hour course fun and engaging. I learned a lot that will make my life and job easier.


Kone

It was very helpful to learn more shortcuts! The material was in-depth without being overwhelming.

Everything provided can be used in my daily operations.

Enjoyed the fact that the class had a workbook, very interactive!


Dragados Canada

This course was very helpful and thorough!

Even though I have used Excel for years, there is always something new to be learned. Looking forward to taking more of these classes!


HUGO BOSS Retail, Inc.

This class was definitely suited for intermediate Excel users. Not only was it a great refresher in some basics but it also covered many topics that were more complex. They made the concepts easy to grasp in order to write the formulas.


Hugo Boss

Ade's Intermediate Excel class was incredibly informative and explained in a very clear way that was easy to understand. The instructor had great energy, was very patient about answering questions.

Fantastic class, made it super easy to learn Excel!

I came into this class knowing nothing about Excel. After a class with Mike, I felt like a pro!

Career Centers has the best instructors and you get the best for your money.


NYU Grossman School of Medicine

I would recommend this class!


NYU Langone Health

The course material was engaging and the structure allowed for increased retention of material.


NYU Langone Medical Center

Mike was a fantastic instructor and was very attentive to any student questions.


Hinds-Bock

The course is very thorough.

I enjoyed the course and learned quite a lot.

Definitely worth the time investment. Great content, extremely applicable.

Vincent is so friendly and does a great job engaging virtually. He is sure to slow the pace when needed and patiently guides anyone who needs it.

This is a life saver class!

The best, most engaging Excel course I've taken to date! Mike was absolutely fabulous. I took the intro Excel course with him and was so excited to see that he was teaching this course today! Mike isn't just an exceptional instructor, but also a master at engaging his students. His teaching style is the perfect mix for me: keeping the topics light while introducing game-changing knowledge and insights.

Adebayo is very patient and attentive. He answers everyone's questions and make sure we all understand.

Excel Intermediate with Debbie Cunningham was the class I didn't know I needed but I'm so glad I enrolled. She made everything seem so easy and always had a useful shortcut, which is essential for time management. If I could, I would take all of her classes.

Mike was very informative and explained matters in a way that was easy to understand.


NYU Langone

I loved this class! The instructor went slow enough for me to actually understand and follow along. I think this class will help me work faster in Excel with all the shortcuts and new functions I have learned!


Tinuiti

A good broad overview if you need to expand your skills from just basic Excel.


Mitsubishi International Corp.

The instructor was very clear. Explained concepts in detail and in a way that made them easy to follow. I was a bit apprehensive about taking the course online - however, I was pleasantly surprised.

He was very helpful, spoke clearly, and made sure nobody was left behind. Mike Green is a great instructor. He would ask questions and test us as he went on with the class which I really liked. He was clear about what we will need if we look into taking more classes, which I truly appreciated. I would refer this center to anyone looking in learning any type of software.

I have been wanting to learn about Pivot Tables for years. So glad to finally know how they work! I am in Excel every day, but there is a lot for me to learn still - and it was great to learn tips on how to analyze my data more efficiently. The instructor was upbeat and not boring at all. It can be very easy to get distracted during online trainings, but I did not during this course.

Very good information! I have always thought I was fairly proficient in Excel, able to navigate easily and get the outputs I wanted, but this course definitely taught me some shortcuts and provided new knowledge.

I would recommend the Excel training classes at NYC Career Centers. If you are looking to enter back into the job market or just want to update your skills - then NYC Career Centers is the place to do it. The teachers are well versed in their courses and have a helpful attitude. The school is centrally located in NYC. The classrooms are extremely clean. They offer both online and in-person classes. Listen, it is time to go for it!!!!

Excellent, the instructor related the material to very helpful real-world scenarios. Patient and kind.

Excellent instruction. Pace, cadence, and delivery were perfect for an intermediate user like me. If Excel were easy, everyone would be doing it.

Perfect for anyone who uses Excel in their day-to-day life! Learned many new shortcuts for Excel and my new favorite: the XLOOKUP.

Bob was incredibly knowledgeful and patient while teaching Intermediate Excel. The class was interesting and I was shocked to learn as much as I did.

I would recommend this course to anyone who needs a greater level of understanding in Excel.

I liked the class and would like to come back for the advanced course.

I thought the class was well organized, clear, and easy to follow, and the instructor was very knowledgeable with excellent presentation skills, Debbie did a great job. Overall the course is going to be very useful in my day-to-day job.

I loved this class, especially taking it after the Excel for Business Level I - Fundamentals. The build made it much more seamless and the refresher at the beginning of the Intermediate class proved to be exceptionally helpful.

My Excel knowledge has exponentially multiplied since taking this class and Excel Fundamentals.

After years of confusion and struggle with functions such as IF statements and VLOOKUP, I finally feel comfortable using them!

This class was extremely helpful in refining my Excel skills. I will definitely be using the new formulas I have learned on a daily basis to support my work!

Excellent instructor Vincent taught me a lot of useful new things and tricks.

Despite their level of Excel experience, everyone would find the Intermediate Excel class very useful.

Very glad I took this class. I have already started using some of the tips and tricks that I've been taught.

What are Intermediate Excel functions?

Do you want to improve your abilities in Excel? Our Intermediate Excel course is the perfect option. This course offers comprehensive training in Excel with hands-on exercises in our custom workbooks.  You’ll leave this class with confidence and eager to demonstrate your knowledge of Excel at work!

Worksheet Management

Worksheet Management begins with Navigation techniques. To save time switching between keyboard and mouse, you can apply basic keyboard shortcuts to navigate around worksheets. You don’t need the mouse to highlight or move text from one cell to another.  Paste Special, which illustrates how to copy data, formatting, and even formulas from one cell to another with a quick keyboard shortcut. 

Working with Text

What if you put the first and last name of each client in one cell, but want to divide them into two cells? If you have 200 clients in one Excel spreadsheet it could take hours. Do you have to copy and paste text from one cell to another? Not with Intermediate Excel functions! 

Split Text from one cell into multiple cells by using the ribbon and Join Text from multiple cells into a single cell with CONCATENATE and the ampersand “&”.  You can also make calculations easier by using Named Ranges to classify an individual cell or a range of cells.

Keeping your data organized is essential to perform calculations and other data functions in Excel. Data Validation formats cells with a drop-down menu, thereby restricting the data that can be entered into a cell.  

Sort & Filter will show you how to organize and search your data efficiently. Remove Duplicates demonstrates Excel’s ability to quickly examine a set of data and eliminate any duplicate rows.  

Database Functions

Database Functions help you find data within the Excel worksheet quickly. For example, you may look up a product code, and return the name or the cost of that product.  The VLOOKUP is easily considered the second most important skill in Excel and helps you find data within columns.  HLOOKUP is used to find data within rows. 

Logical Functions

Logical functions help you find data that meets certain criteria. For example, with the IF statement you can design a true/false test and designate specific actions to perform for both true and false results.  This powerful ability allows a single cell to offer two different outcomes.  AND/OR functions build on the basic True/False property by implementing multiple logical tests to determine in a statement is true.  

Pivot Tables

Pivot Tables are easily the most-sought-after skill in Excel.  Pivot Tables are another way to analyze data in Excel through both consolidation and analysis. With the Grouping technique, you can consolidate row and column data into groups.  You can also create Multiple Pivot Tables on the same worksheet page.

Statistical Functions and Advanced Charts

It’s hard to keep track of data within large datasets. The RANK.EQ, COUNTIFS, and SUMIFS provide additional information on data position and count within an Excel worksheet. Combo Charts are a unique visualization tool that allows Excel users to combine two charts.
