Course info states no prerequisites required to attend. I think there should be as the topics covered go beyond basic level for both statistics & knowledge of Excel.1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
To increase training time to maybe 1 & half days where half a day could be spent going through the basic & intermediate excel functions before embarking on the various modules later.

Probably extend an hour or so, else feel very rushed if you're not well familiar with Excel1. Do you find the course meet your expectation? 2. Do you find the trainer knowledgeable in this subject? 3. How do you find the training environment
But otherwise, the class is small, and the trainer (Mr Tan) can easily explained it on the spot if we have any questions. Very enriched in how Excel can do more functions than the basics I know. (Posted on 2/11/2018) - Might Recommend Review by Course Participant/Trainee
