Total Training for Microsoft Excel 2007 Advanced

"Nearly 6 hours of audio & video training!"


If you want to learn the advanced features of Excel 2007, this DVD is for you. Based on Bill Jelen's popular Power Excel Seminar, the DVD will walk you through the best features of Excel 2007. Learn pivot tables, automatic subtotals, charting and more.

Each lesson starts with a video clip. You can use the navigation to jump to a specific lesson:

Once you are watching a lesson, you will hear my voice and watch my mouse as I click around the video screen. At any point, you can jump to a certain topic within the lesson. Here, you can see there are 15 chapter marks within the 75 minute Charting Lesson. You can bookmark any lesson to be able to jump back to it quickly.

The Total Training company has the best production values in the industry. Their intuitive interface will allow you to skip directly to the topics that you need to learn today. Actually, the interface remains unobtrusive outside the video window, but it has incredible depth. There are 30+ controls available to you.

Watch the video on your computer screen and then open the identical Excel 2007 workbook to try the concepts yourself. You can even minimize the video screen to a small size so that you can see both your Excel screen and the video at the same time.

The Total Training interface allows you to jump directly to a Lesson and then a topic within that lesson. Here is the course outline:
