Overview
Excel users often are stopped in their tracks by error prompts they receive while performing seemingly simple actions in their spreadsheets. In this broad-reaching webcast, Excel expert David Ringstrom, CPA, delves into the intricacies of Excel to explain why error prompts can be encountered frequently, as well as what actions to take when Excel appears to go awry.
Why should you attend?
Practitioners seeking to use Microsoft Excel more effectively by understanding and mitigating Excel error prompts.

David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in Excel 2016. He draws your attention to any differences in Excel 2013, 2010, or 2007 during the presentation as well as in his detailed handouts.

IjonaSkills  -  HR Management Training in United States Overview Becoming a leader with direct oversight of employees can be rewarding, inspiring, and challenging.
