"Our tailored course provided a well rounded introduction and also covered some intermediate level topics that we needed to know. Clive gave us some best practice ideas and tips to take away. Fast paced but the instructor never lost any of the delegates"

Brian Leek, Data Analyst, May 2022

FAQs

JBI Training offers four Microsoft 365 and Office application courses in this group. Available courses are Microsoft Excel (one day), MS Word Basic (one day), MS Word Intermediate (one day), and MS Word Advanced (one day). All courses are available as scheduled classroom sessions in London, as live online instructor-led training, or as customised onsite programmes for business teams. Each course is practical and hands-on, focusing on the features and techniques professionals need most in their day-to-day work.

The one-day Microsoft Excel course covers the core features and functions that professionals need to work confidently and productively in Excel. Topics include navigating the Excel interface, entering and formatting data, working with formulas and functions — including SUM, AVERAGE, IF, VLOOKUP, and XLOOKUP — sorting and filtering data, creating charts and graphs, working with PivotTables for data summarisation, and printing and sharing workbooks. The course is suitable for professionals at any level who use Excel regularly in their role and want to build or consolidate their core Excel skills. It complements JBI's more advanced Excel for Data Analysts course for those who need to go further with analytical techniques.

The three MS Word courses form a structured progression. MS Word Basic covers the fundamentals — creating and formatting documents, working with text styles, inserting images and tables, page layout, and saving and sharing documents. MS Word Intermediate builds on this foundation with topics such as mail merge, working with sections and columns, advanced table formatting, creating templates, using track changes and comments for collaborative editing, and working with headers, footers, and page numbers. MS Word Advanced covers the most powerful Word features — including building and managing long documents with a table of contents, index, and cross-references, using macros for task automation, advanced styles and formatting, form design, and document protection. Delegates should choose the course level that matches their current experience.

Yes. All Microsoft 365 and Office application courses at JBI can be delivered as customised onsite or online programmes for corporate teams. Content can be tailored to the specific tools, templates, and workflows the team uses in practice — for example, a team that regularly produces complex Word reports can receive training focused on styles, long document management, and templates, while a team adopting Microsoft 365 Copilot across Word and Excel can receive training that integrates Copilot productivity techniques alongside core application skills. Group delivery is also cost-effective for organisations that need to upskill multiple employees to a consistent standard across Microsoft 365 applications.

Yes. Microsoft 365 is updated continuously by Microsoft, and JBI's Office application training content is reviewed regularly to reflect the latest features across Word and Excel — including new functions, interface changes, and the growing integration of Microsoft Copilot across Microsoft 365 applications. Copilot in Word can now draft, summarise, and rewrite document content, while Copilot in Excel can help analyse data, generate formulas, and create charts from natural language prompts. Delegates learn current skills that reflect how these tools work in the Microsoft 365 environment today.
