About this Event

About this event


Excel is an incredibly useful tool to help you store, analyse and present your data. Even with basic skills there's a lot you can do to help with your organisation's monitoring and evaluation practice - but how do you get started?


This session will introduce the basics of using Excel including creating a file, adding data to, navigating the toolbar and best practice considerations. There are two other follow on Excel sessions you can then join, to build your knowledge and skills level further.


In this practical session with exercises for you to complete, we’ll be covering the following features:

• Intro to the menu bar

• Intro to adding, viewing and formatting your data

• Sorting your data

• Intro to auto formulae

• Intro to manual formulae

• Printing Excel sheets


Who should attend

This course is a beginners course for staff, trustees or volunteers of charities and community groups delivering services in Kingston and who are getting started on their data and digital journeys and want to better collect, analyse and present their data.


If you already have a basic working knowledge of Excel, please see our two follow on courses, Excel Next Steps 1 and Excel Next Steps 2, to build knowledge and skills further



Session requirements

You will need to be able to join this session from a PC or laptop with Excel installed to be able to participate in the training. The session is designed for people using Microsoft Excel 2016, 2019, 2021 or the Microsoft 365 Excel desktop App on a Windows PC / laptop.


If you have an earlier version of Excel, are using the Microsoft 365 Web App in a browser, or are working on a Mac, you'll find that some of the features we look at either don't exist or are accessed differently.


Please check the version of Excel you are running by opening Excel, click on ‘File’ and then on ‘Account’ and you will see the version you are running in the right hand-side of the window.
