Improving Your Software Application and Digital Skills

About The Course

This unit is about the skills and knowledge required by an IT user to select and use a wide range of advanced spreadsheet software tools and techniques to produce, present and check complex and non-routine spreadsheets. Spreadsheet software tools and techniques will be described as ‘advanced’ because: the range of data entry, manipulation and outputting techniques will be complex and non-routine; the tools, formulas and functions needed to analyse and interpret the required information require complex and non-routine knowledge and understanding (for example, data restrictions, data validation using formula, pivot tables, data maps); and the user will take full responsibility for setting up and developing the functionality of the spreadsheet.
