Learn Excel

Excel is a spreadsheet program which is handy for not only bookkeeping purposes but also terminology management. At the recent SENSE workshop on Keeping Your Books, a clear need for a hands-on introduction to Excel was expressed.

 

We will dive right in and get you started using Excel. You will:

  • identify your needs;
  • access built-in templates and adapt these to your needs;
  • create, complete and save new worksheets;
  • format cells and worksheets, including placement of title, date and other information in a header and making column headers visible on subsequent pages;
  • work with formulas and Excel to automate bookkeeping tasks for quarterly VAT and annual tax returns;
  • format data for import into other applications (e.g., other Excel files, Word files, a terminology program such as Trados); and
  • learn how to print a worksheet.

 

Presenters

John O’Hare has more than 25 years of experience as a translator in all fields of finance and business; he has used Excel for both bookkeeping and terminology management (KPMG).

 

Camilla Brokking has more than 20 years of administrative experience, the last being financial administration in a legal environment where she set up most of the administrative procedures from scratch.
