Google Sheets Introduction Course Outline

Overview
This one-day class will show you how to create, edit, share, and print documents with Google Sheets. The class is recommended for users who would like to get to know Google Sheets in more depth or who are converting to Google Workspace from another office suite such as Microsoft Office.

Prerequisites
To ensure your success in this course, you should have end-user computer skills, including being able to start programs, switch between programs, locate saved files, close programs, and access websites using a web browser.

Who Should Not Attend
If you have never used a spreadsheet program before, you should not take this class. The class is fast-paced and assumes you understand the basic spreadsheet concepts. You already know how to do things in Microsoft Excel--now you just need to learn how to do the same things in Google Sheets.
