Frequently Asked Questions

Which Excel Course is right for me?

Everyone uses Excel differently but as Excel consultants, we are aware of the core concepts relevant to all workplaces. Our Excel Specialist courses focus on different aspects of Excel and how it is used across different roles. The Financial Modelling course introduces building models in excel in line with best practices. Analysis and Dashboards concentrates on building more advanced visuals and introducing Power Query. For those seeking to automate tasks in Excel, our VBA course will be the best fit.

How many students are typically in an Excel Specialist Training Course?

While this varies from session to session, we typically have 4 - 6 students in our Excel Specialist classes. We cap our classes at 10 students. This is to ensure the quality of training remains high and that all students can ask questions and engage in discussion.

What is Remote Training?

Remote training at Nexacu means our team of experienced trainers will deliver your training virtually. Students can access our usual classroom training courses via video conferencing, ask questions, participate in discussions, and share their screen with the trainer if they need help at any point in the course. Students have the same level of participation and access to the trainer as they would in classroom training sessions. 

What should I do to prepare for my online course?

You need to install the latest version of Excel and ensure you have the appropriate license to use it. 

The Browser you use is very important. It is recommended you use Chrome, Edge, or Firefox. The latest version must also be installed. Note that Internet Explorer is not compatible with our delivery technologies. 

Windows 10 is highly recommended as the operating system you use. Apple devices and macOS are not suitable for this course.
