Why learn Excel
Excel isn't just for accountants — HR, sales, ops, marketing, and admin roles all use it daily. Knowing Excel makes you visibly more valuable at work and much more hireable.

Start with the interface (Ribbon, cells, saving), then basic formulas (SUM, AVERAGE, IF), then lookups (VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP), then pivot tables. That's 80% of what most office jobs actually use.
