Most Excel courses include a course confirmation or course certificate. This briefly summarizes the content taught and certifies course participation including the date.

However, if you are looking for a recognized Excel course certificate according to international standards and already have basic knowledge, you should complete the ECDL Excel Spreadsheet module. There you learn:

• Set up calculations of varying complexity
• Structure tables and make them meaningful
• Import and prepare data
• Manage, sort and filter Excel databases
• Evaluate data, even across multiple spreadsheets (pivot tables)
• Building what-if scenarios
• into meaningful diagrams
• Create forms with fields and input checks
• Automate processes
• know the versatile functions and applications of Excel
• use the efficient working methods

An alternative Excel course with certificate would also be the SIZ.

To be able to learn Excel VBA, you already need in-depth experience with Excel. Only then can you get to know the basics of object-oriented programming VBA (Visual Basic for Applications). Everyday and recurring tasks can be solved efficiently with the VBA programming language. In an Excel Visual Basic course, participants learn the following:

• Basic concepts
• The Visual Basic Editor (VBE)
• Macros (write code)
• Basic syntax in modules
• Procedures and functions
• Variables and data types
• Operators
• Branches (IF... THEN... ELSE...)
• Loops (FOR...NEXT, Do...Loop)
• Error handling
• Input Box

An advanced Excel course builds on the basics and provides in-depth knowledge for professional use. The aim is to analyze complex data efficiently, create automated workflows and design visually appealing evaluations.

Typical learning content in an Excel course for advanced users:

• Apply complex formulas and functions
• Linking tables with each other
• Use conditional formatting to visually highlight values
• Using diagrams and graphical representations in a targeted manner
• Create automations with macros and other tools
• Sort, filter and analyze data in a targeted manner
• Using database functions
• Importing and exporting data

An advanced course in Excel not only imparts technical knowledge, but also strengthens the understanding of data-based decisions and more efficient processes in everyday working life.

Important: Each school or educational institution can set its own priorities. The actual course content may therefore vary. To make sure what is actually taught in the respective course, it is worth asking directly. Use our contact form to do this - the inquiry will be automatically forwarded to the desired school
