Advanced Excel Online Class?

[tanderson]

I'm looking for a credible online class that I can take for Advanced Excel. Additionally I don't want it to break the bank. I have found a few for 5,6,7 hundred dollars but I think that's insane. I'm not paying, my company is, but I have to get it approved and that won't fly. Currently I just go to forums or watch free video to learn specifics that I need but I'm doing this on an as needed basis. I'd like to find a self paced online course that will take me through lessons etc. Any Recommendations. Looking for something < $300

I have found one here but unsure of the credibility of it, has anyone has any experience with this site or these classes?

You think that 5, 6, 7 hundred dollars to take a class in advanced techniques in the world's most powerful desktop application is insane? This attitude is why there are so many poorly developed, error-ridden spreadsheets out there, people/companies are not willing to spend money to learn to use it properly.

I bet your company pays thousands for people to take simple SQL Server courses.

theBardd, while I appreciate your comment it doesn't help my cause. Yes I feel 5,6,7 is insane for an online self-taught class. Those costs would make more sense for instructor led.

I'm afraid I cannot recommend those classes because I don't know them.

But I'm afraid I am going to second theBardd's comments. I hope that you will see the comments as helpful, because essentially what we're telling you is, you get what you pay for. Don't expect to find anything too terrific on a low budget. It takes a lot of time and effort to construct courses, good ones ain't cheap.

But good luck and I hope you get what you are looking for.

I looked at their course outline. Seems pretty generic. And I think it's hard for a supplier to create a poor generic course, given that all that is required is to copy material from heaps of other generic courses. So if generic is what you want, then I reckon it will probably be ok.

The thing with generic is, don't expect to be given any real world context... I.e. what to use, when, based on your occupation...
