The importance of Microsoft Excel skills

Microsoft Excel is the most widely used commercial spreadsheet application in the world. Part of the Microsoft Office package, it enables businesses and people to work faster and smarter. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel is now a prerequisite for a huge number of industries and job roles.

Equipping your workforce with Excel skills can save your employees time, increase productivity and enable your business to reach its commercial goals. However, it isn’t always possible to accomplish this in house.
