CA121 covers spreadsheet skills: basics, intermediate, and advanced analysis and problem solving skills for managers and others needing Excel power such as business professionals - accountants, managers, analysts, statisticians, psychologists, engineers, etc.
The focus is on learning to become more effective and efficient with creation, use and maintenance of Excel projects.
The applied learning occurs as you learn to develop your own robust spreadsheet semester project.
- - - Note: If you are an OT major, I created the OT121 course for the skills you need for administrative work. Please check AVC Schedule of Courses to register for that course instead of CA121.
