TOP REVIEWS FROM GETTING STARTED WITH GOOGLE SHEETS
by CYJan 21, 2020
A nice survey of Google Sheets, what is possible and how to. Should be a relatively easy effort to go through. Learning probably come after the course and repeated use of Google Sheets.
by TOApr 3, 2020
The sheet in videos could be closer and darker. Hard to read and follow because they are hard to see. Otherwise the course is a great way to get started with Google sheets.
by SBFeb 29, 2020
Good course. Explained alot of useful features. Reccommend doing it to get familiar with Google Sheets. There were some errors int the test sections of the course.

It's a great course I was surprised and some of the stuff you can do with Sheets. I'm also surprised more businesses aren't using it.

Very nice course offered.\n\nI was surprised with some great stuffs in sheets.\n\nMy suggestion is to spend more time on formulas.
by BMNov 28, 2019
It would be helpful to have something to print out with the formulas. It was sometimes difficult to see what she was typing.
