Why choose Glide for your on-site one-to-one training?

We work on a bespoke, requirements-led basis rather than offer a set range of courses. We will work with you to identify your specific requirements and objectives before any training is delivered. That way you can be sure that training will always deliver exactly what you’re looking to achieve.

All our on-site IT training courses are delivered at our customers’ premises. Not only does that avoid any travel inconvenience for your team, but also it means we don’t have the overheads required to maintain a dedicated training centre – and in turn we are able to pass these savings on to you.

Here some example scenarios that we have helped with

“I manage the running of projects and I need to be better at identifying problems and spotting ways of improving next time. The projects have been delivered late and I think I need more resources but when requesting extra resources, the problem is not taken seriously. I am trying to keep track of costs and the number of hours worked and my client has asked to see a Gantt Chart with key milestones. I want to ensure that plan is kept up to date and if things change, I want to see the knock-on-effect on other tasks. I also need to present reports to my managers”

“I spend a lot of time finding data in my list, I manually count items in my list – there must be a quicker or better way! I have to present this data and report on it and it would great to learn some data analysis tools and functions to automate some of this.”

“I receive documents from other people and spend a long time formatting them, copying and moving text, but Word seems to have a mind of its own as it adopts formatting from other paragraphs, and the numbering goes wrong. I’ve spent so long on this, I could have typed it all from scratch by now!”

Individual one-to-one training sessions can go into greater depth than is viable in a group scenario, which can be extremely beneficial for power users.

Another popular application for one-to-one sessions is where a train-the-trainer approach is sought, in order to facilitate future in-house learning.

Q&A Workshops take more of a relaxed conversational approach to training. They can take place either in the form of a group forum, or with the instructor walking the floor of the office to speak to users in their day-to-day environment.

Go to linked cells in an Excel formula (Quickly!)

Monday, July 4th, 2016

Written by Jane Hames

If you have set up a formula in one workbook that uses cells from a different workbook, the two workbooks become linked. It is useful to be able to go to linked cells in an Excel formula, and it would be great to be able to do that both quickly and easily!

Here’s the slow way: If you are on the cell that contains the formula, you can use Trace Precendents, double click on the dotted line and then use Go To to go to the cells used in that formula.go to linked cells in an excel formula

There is quicker way! It takes several clicks to get there using the method described above, but there is a very quick keyboard shortcut that does the same thing.

If you have tried to use Google to find this shortcut key, you might have trouble. I found it very tricky to find a search phrase that explained what I wanted to do. Asking amoungst a group of Excel users it seemed that this shortcut was a mystery until one of the group had a sudden recollection of what the shortcut is. Now, those of you who know me and/or follow my posts, I certainly don’t believe in keeping these kind of software secrets as secret, so here’s what you need to know:

  1. Click on the cell that contains the formula.go to linked cells in an excel formula
  2. On the keyboard, press, CTRL [
  3. You will taken to the first cells used in the formula. (Regardless of whether or not the linked workbook was open already.)go to linked cells in an excel formula
