Google Sheets for Beginners & Excel Users Who Need Sheets

John Ciolkosz and Steve McDonald introduce Sheets through practical workbook examples, including a renovation project with summary and detail pages. Formulas, lookups, text combination and charts extend the initial navigation lessons. It suits newcomers and Excel users who prefer a compact project sequence; the recorded interface dates from 2021 and may differ from the current application.

Who this suits

Beginners or Excel users moving to Sheets; the provider says previous spreadsheet experience helps but is not required.

Before you enroll

Use a Google account and a browser suitable for Sheets. Practice with fictional or public data, check sharing permissions and verify formulas against small examples with known answers. Interface details and connected services can change after recording; independent exercises add to the listed video time.

Put it into practice
