Microsoft: Beyond the Basics
“I didn’t know I could do that!”
Shortcuts, new techniques, key codes — you thought Excel was amazing before. Now experience it on a whole new level.
If you’re comfortable building a worksheet, using cells, entering data and creating basic formulas this full day workshop will take you to the next level of Excel expertise. You will discover how easily you can expand your knowledge base to become a more confident, capable user while improving your productivity tenfold.
An Excel Workshop has never delivered so much practical, advanced Excel training. Complicated charts that once took hours to compile will now take only minutes to set up and assemble. You’ll learn when it makes sense to use a macro, how to debug a macro, and how to create and manage a Pivot Chart. Even the advanced linking and data exchange operations you once dreaded will become easier.
- Slash the time it takes to build your worksheets with power tips and surprising shortcuts
- Get the most out of macros and easily automate repetitive tasks
- Use Excel’s robust collaboration tools to share data across teams and work groups
- Create, manage and modify PivotTables with ease to produce sophisticated reports and data analysis
- Take your charts, graphs, tables and reports to the next level with eye-catching graphics and other design elements
- Integrate Excel with the Internet and your company’s intranet — with tools and techniques that allow you to create Internet-compatible workbooks, spreadsheets, charts and other documents
- And much, much more
Our “hands-off” training method means you won’t waste time entering data, correcting mistakes, or waiting for the entire group to catch up. Instead, you’ll learn exactly how to do it from an expert; then, try it at your leisure, in the privacy of your own office.

Foundation For Publication Success Group
Everyone has a book inside.
Most people don’t know how to start or they are afraid to start.
FOUNDATION FOR PUBLICATION
We take the fear out of publishing
We will meet weekly to critique and edit your work of the week. That can be in person or by video conference. Every week we’ll have a video conference with one or more of the experts. Mae will be accessible by phone or e-mail for advice.
Our team of experts includes: legal experts on copy rights, a graphic artist for book covers and/or logos, a web designer, a merchant services person, a P.R. expert for promotion, a face book specialist, and many others.
Before we actually go to print, Mae will proof read and edit your manuscript. Some professional editors charge $75 per hour and many charge more than that. Because Mae wants every manuscript completed to be one that any traditional publisher would be happy to buy, she will provide these services for the members. You can expect an ISBN and bar code for your book if done under Mountain Top Books.
We will have a professional photographer for head shots for back covers, and will have a celebration and book signing in the end.
Cost will be $250 per month. If paid three months in advance cost will be $600. If paid six months in advance cost will be $1125.
You should have a manuscript ready for publishing within three to six months.
