All participants should please note the following

Test session. If you would like to test your connection and setup prior to your course, please contact info@professional.ie or 016627700 and we will arrange this with you.
Two monitors. Having two monitors is very strongly recommended for this training. It allows you to view the trainers PC in one monitor and the application that is the subject of the training in the other. On a single screen it can be difficult to arrange the trainers screen and your own application comfortably. If you only have a single screen please inform the trainer - ideally before the test session - and they can help you to get the best from the training session.
Microsoft Office version. We use Microsoft Office 365 Professional. If you are using an older version please be aware that you might not be able to do some of the exercises that are using the latest features.
Windows 10. We prepare the files and deliver the course using Windows 10. If you are using a MacBook or other platform please be aware that there can sometimes be incompatibilities and there are certain features that are not available on the Macintosh edition of Microsoft Office 365 Professional. These issues can be identified and resolved during the test session.

Excel 365 Integration and Automation Essentials (ROI/NI)

Excel has undergone its greatest upheaval in the past couple of years, the effects of which have yet to be fully appreciated in the general user environment.This course has 2 main aims:

Provide a detailed introduction to these new tools, what they do, how they operate and show real world examples. These tools are Dynamic Array Formulas. This is will include (where appropriate) contrasting with how these real world issues would have been handled in 'legacy' (i.e. pre 365) Excel.
Focus on particular useful techniques in a few areas that will be familiar (Charting and Formatting) and one that may or not be well known to you (Macros).
