Learning Excel at Excel

At Excel Courier, we're committed to empowering our team to excel in their roles and beyond. That's why we've launched the FUNctions with Fil biweekly training course led by our Controller, Phil. This voluntary course is designed to equip the Excel Courier team with the essential Microsoft Excel skills to make work easier, faster, and more efficient inside and outside the office [insert Excel learning Excel joke here]. 

 
Starting from the Ground Up

Our FUNtions with Fil course begins with the basics, ensuring everyone is on the same page.

We follow our e-learning management courses to cover fundamental navigation techniques and lay the groundwork for understanding basic formulas. Then, we'll gradually build on that foundation, exploring more advanced techniques and tips.

 

 
 
 
Learning Together, Growing Together

In just our second class, we've already witnessed significant progress. The course has expanded from a small conference room to a dedicated training space, reflecting the growing enthusiasm and participation. To ensure accessibility and knowledge sharing, we're documenting the processes and techniques learned throughout the sessions. This allows anyone, regardless of their starting point, to jump in at any time and benefit from the collective learning experience.

Excel Beyond the Office

Microsoft Excel isn't just for work. Here are a few examples of how Excel can be used in everyday life:

  • Track your income, expenses, and savings to make informed financial decisions.
  • Create timelines, assign tasks, and monitor progress to stay organized and on track.
  • Analyze data sets to identify trends, patterns, and insights.
  • Store and organize recipes, create shopping lists, and calculate nutritional information.
  • Record and analyze data related to hobbies like fitness, gardening, or collecting.

The FUNtions with Fil course is a testament to our dedication to providing our employees with the tools and resources they need to succeed.

Be Part of a Learning Team

At Excel, we never stop learning and believe that there is more than one way to learn. Between training manuals, courses, interactive modules, and veteran wisdom, there is so much to be learned from the robust and fast-paced courier industry. We ask questions, take notes, and move on when we make mistakes. It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it. thumbnail_IMG_0473The road to excellence is paved with lessons learned!
