Hi,
What are the Excel skills trainee accounts should have or at least would be ideal to have assuming their firm doesn’t use their own software packages?
Can you recommend a video learning resource that would ideally also supply downloadable Excel files to use alongside the videos?
Thanks.

– Basic formulae like SUM, MAX, MIN, COUNT
– More advanced formulae like IF, VLOOKUP, SUMIF, SUMIFS, COUNTIF
– Pivot tables
– Macro writing and VBA coding can be useful but only for advanced users, learn the other stuff first
Plenty of stuff on the Web if you have a look.
