Consultants' Forum
Advanced Excel and Powerpoint training providers
"I am wondering if any of the forum readers who work in strategy consultancy have taken any advanced Excel or advanced Powerpoint training courses provided by an external provider. If you have undertaken such training, would you be able to post the name of the training provider and give me some feedback as to whether you would recommend them or not? I would also be interested to hear if the training was tailored around typical strategy applications. Thanks."
