I highly recommend the Excel ... class to anybody who wants to learn ... Excel. Jackie teaches the class at a pace that is enjoyable.

Learning how to use Excel spreadsheets has enabled me to record and interpret data in a MUCH FASTER and more efficient way.

David Redding, M.D. Redding Allergy and Asthma Center

Very personable. Provided good training materials. Provided opportunities to answer questions. Practice exercises (were done well).

Walked through every aspect of questions the group had. Kept the attention of everyone, tailored (courses) to our needs. Explained to where everyone could grasp concepts.

(Jackie) also encouraged participation and answered all questions clearly. Zodiac Aerospace

Jackie allowed time for candid questions and real life work/application questions. Zodiac Aerospace

(Jackie) Answered questions, but also allowed us to solve practice problems on our own. I liked the "pop quiz" type problems.
