Meilleurs avis pour EXCEL/VBA FOR CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING, PART 1
par MS26 janv. 2018
Great course! I like it goes straight to implementation and is practice-oriented. What could be improved maybe is sound quality of lectures. And maybe it would be great to have some VBA notes in pdf.
par IF20 sept. 2018
the course was very informative and helpful. However, it would be easier to concentrate on VBA if people who don't use mathematical formulas that much would not have to deal with maths that much.
par PP18 avr. 2020
The pattern of course is really nice.It first teaches all the basic information in video and the assignments are designed in a way that all the taught information are used to solve the assignment.
par JH2 avr. 2020
Very good course with clear examples throughout to help you develop. The online format of the course is great as it allows you to pause and work through the activities presented at your own speed.
À propos du Spécialisation Excel/VBA for Creative Problem Solving
This Specialization is for learners wishing to dramatically change the way that they use Excel spreadsheets by unleashing the power to automate and optimize spreadsheets using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). The first two courses will teach learners the basics of VBA through the use of dozens of educational screencasts and a series of quizzes and in-application programming assignments. Finally, in Part 3 of the course, learners will complete 3 "real world" and somewhat open ended projects, which are graded through peer review.
