TLDR: The pair of courses go deep into Excel training for numbers-centric professionals, including how to customize and automate Excel to do statistical gruntwork all on its own.
No true professional ever really stops growing. The minute someone decides they’ve learned everything there is to learn in their field is the minute they start heading toward a rude awakening. This truth is that if you’ve stopped acquiring new skills, you’ve already started falling behind.

Sometimes, advancing your career just means finally learning a skill you’ve always meant to pick up, particularly for those in tricky business of numbers. For example, if you don’t already know much beyond the basics of Microsoft Excel, the spreadsheet titan has probably long been on your “I’ve been meaning to get around to that” list.
