Description

Microsoft Excel is a handy spreadsheet program that is useful for organizing data, performing quick calculations, tracking expenditures and income and much more. It is especially helpful for record-keeping during tax season. In Week 1, we’ll learn some Excel basics including creating formulas for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. We’ll design a simple budget that you can customize for your own use. In Week 2, we’ll use data from a spreadsheet to create some different types of charts, including line, column and pie. Charts are especially helpful in presenting data graphically and helping to convey the meaning behind the numbers. We will be using a PC for this class, but most of the skills are transferable to a Mac.
