Excel is software included in your DMU MS365 package for creating spreadsheets. These are documents where you can add data in rows and columns to analyze, calculate, apply formulas and algorithms, create tables of data, and generate diagrams and graphs. For example, learn how to create your very first budget in Excel.

  • What are cells? Why are rows and columns important in Excel.
  • How to apply basic calculations.

  • How to generate a chart/diagram from a table of data (and add to a Word document)

In session exercises:

  • Create a table and generate a diagram with built-in tools
