Prove what you can do

Each exam uses fresh data, with no hints along the way. Your formulas are tested on data you haven’t seen, just like in the lessons.

Certificate

Excel Skills Certificate

A timed assessment across the core skills. Pass it to earn a certificate with a public verification page.

  • 12 tasks
  • 30 minutes
  • 75% to pass

It’s earned by assessment rather than for finishing lessons, but it isn’t supervised, and it isn’t a Microsoft credential.
