Excel 365: Working with Formulas and Functions E-Learning Course

In this course, learners will be shown a range of functions for performing calculations in Excel, such as simple mathematical and statistical functions, as well as more complex reference and array functions. These functions can be used in formulas. The names of the functions usually indicate what type of result they produce, for example SUM or WEEKNUM.

The course will begin by introduction to the structure of formulas and functions, followed by an introduction to frequently used functions in Excel.
