What the day covers
Lookups that do not break: XLOOKUP and structured references instead of fragile copied formulas.
Tables and PivotTables for summarising data that changes every month.
Cleaning imported data so reports stop inheriting other systems' mess.
Error-proofing: finding the wrong number before it reaches a client or a board pack.
The day runs on realistic sample files built to look like real work, and delegates leave with techniques they can apply to their own workbooks on Monday.
Excel is the operating system of the Thames Valley's mid-sized firms. Sales and partner operations teams around Thames Valley Park and Winnersh Triangle run forecasts and commission models in it, finance teams from Green Park to the town centre close the month in it, and the professional practices around Forbury Square bill by it. The pattern in Reading is rarely beginners: it is self-taught intermediates who inherited a workbook nobody fully understands, where one wrong lookup quietly misprices a contract. The course meets people exactly there, with the habits that make a spreadsheet something a colleague can audit rather than a puzzle only its author can operate.
Excel training in Reading: FAQs
Our team is mixed ability. Does that work?+
Yes, and it is the normal case. We agree the level with you beforehand, and because the whole day is your team, the trainer can move at your pace rather than the pace of strangers on a public course. Where the spread is wide, running two shorter sessions at different levels on one visit often works better.
Which version of Excel do we need?+
Any recent version works. Microsoft 365 has the newest functions, and where your version differs from the material the trainer shows the equivalent as they go, so nobody is left with techniques they cannot use.
Who should attend the Excel Intermediate course?+
This course is ideal for those who already have a working knowledge of Excel and want to boost their confidence with formulas, data management, and reporting. If you regularly use spreadsheets and need to work faster or more accurately, this is for you.
What topics are covered in this training?+
You’ll cover a wide range of practical topics, including conditional formatting, advanced formulas, structured tables, named ranges, key functions like VLOOKUP and IF, and essential tips for reports and worksheet management.
How is the course delivered?+
We offer live online sessions on public dates or private team courses. You can also arrange face-to-face, in-house training if you prefer something tailored to your organisation.
