What You Need to Attend a Course

To attend our live online courses you will need a computer (desktop or laptop), an internet connection and a web browser. 

If you work with a laptop, it might be difficult to show the Instructor’s screen and work in the program at the same time, so for smaller screens, we recommend you have a second monitor or second computer.

It would be helpful if you have a microphone so you can speak during the course, but if you don’t you will still be able to ask questions and make comments using the Q&A or Chat features.

Does Your Team Need Excel Training?

Did you know that most Excel users spend up to 10x longer than necessary to complete tasks?

Understanding Excel is essential for nearly everyone in the workplace today, but most people are ‘self-taught’ and have gaps in their knowledge that cause them to spend much more time than necessary to accomplish tasks – sometimes spending hours every single day to do what should take minutes!  

With professional Microsoft Excel training from GUMP your team will learn the fastest, most efficient way to get the job done to free up their valuable time for more important tasks.

Our Clients Love Us

I'm so glad we hired the Gump team for our training needs... they've saved us from countless hours of tedious and unnecessary work by optimizing our efficiency in every aspect of Excel. We have taken 7 private in-person Excel courses with Gump, and our team is now far more confident using Excel ... thank you so much.

All our employees were always very happy with the training we received from Gump. Excel can be a dry topic, but they made it fun and easy to follow and were very accommodating in allowing us to choose topics for many custom courses this past year. They also provide very professional textbooks for all of their courses.

Gump provided excellent training for a variety of skill levels. Michele was willing to travel to our Mississauga and Sudbury facilities and everyone enjoyed her thoroughness and flexibility with learning styles. I'm often asked when the next session will be and I was quickly able to see people apply their knowledge.

Michele is an excellent instructor and pleasant to deal with. She's very well spoken and explained the steps in a way we were all able to understand and took the extra time if someone needed more help. She also kept it light, entertaining and funny. I highly recommend GUMP for any Microsoft Office training!
