Online Training

Please ensure you have downloaded the latest version of the software Microsoft Excel Desktop for use within the session. We also require a working computer with a microphone and speaker installed, and an up-to-date web browser for this training. For the best experience we recommend downloading the latest Google Chrome browser.
