About this event

In this session, veteran Excel trainer and blogger David Lyford-Tilley will be at your disposal, answering all questions (either submitted in advance from the link below or live on the day) for the full duration of the webinar.

Submit your Excel questions.

Who should attend?

This session is led by you – so the complexity level is up to the questions you bring in. Anyone with a burning Excel question, or a curiosity to learn more of what the program is capable of, should consider attending.

How will you benefit from attending?

With the full hour dedicated to your questions, we will have plenty of time to dive into whatever issues the audience brings in. David will show his full process for solving problems live, so you can see real Excel in use, not a pre-prepared model or demonstration.
