As requested by students in the Excel Beginner/Intermediate workshop, here’s a conversation that’s purely about Excel formulas.
Whether you write the formulas or need to understand someone else’s formulas, they are the juice that makes Excel useful. People go a long time before they use Pivot Tables, but it’s hard to get around formulas.
- Adding totals in a budget,
- Peeling first names away from last names,
- Checking for duplicates and errors,
All of those require creation of formulas.
Let’s spend 2 hours together and discuss a few key functions, including:
- IF
- VLOOKUP
- SUMIFS
- AND, OR
Let’s think through how to use them to build more complex formulas.
We’ll also discuss best practices.
- Helper columns
- Troubleshooting
- Nesting
- Handling errors
Join the course and let’s sweeten your relationship with spreadsheet formulas.
