Very useful to remember and learn different functions

Really great course, Paul is great and taught me a lot of things I didn't already know which will now be very useful for me now when using spreadsheets/working on reports at work. I will now be able to complete excel tasks a lot faster due to this new knowledge and shortcuts.

There were quite a few sections that I found something useful in. I shall be putting some of these into action. Shelley was lovely and approachable and took time explaining things where needed.

Introduction and fact finding to gauge peoples level of knowledge and skills (perhaps a questionnaire in advance would have been helpful)so the session could have been more tailored. Asking people to bring their kit into the session beforehand would have saved time. Shame the Wifi wasn't working. The course content overall was geared to touch screens but not totally disadvantaged by not having this. . The tips and hints provided were excellent - are these available and could these be sent to everyone? I discovered that the shortcuts would help me work smarter and save so much time - can't remember them all though! It would be useful to have more training in each of the programmes - word / excel / PowerPoint / outlook.

I learned what I wanted to learn - how to use the Surface as a tablet and how to set up the phone hotspot. As a criticism of Microsoft, I find the constant updates of Office to be filled with boys toys; rather like the washing machine with 66 programmes, when you only ever use 3. I find myself yearning for "Office Middle Aged" - a simplified version of Office without all the noise. I don't actually do very much IT stuff, and I won't make use of about 98.5% of the capability of the programmes. But I do appreciate the training and found Shelley very engaging.

Could be a little slower paced to allow time to practice.

Could be slower paced in places to allow more practical time.

I like to take notes and she moved a little too fast for me to write notes and perform the tasks/examples
