Transcript Class

From Michelle Huffman –transcript
Have you ever felt like transcripts were too complicated to ever understand?
Do you find your planners in a disarray at the end of the school year?
What if I could show you how to create your own transcript in Excel?
What if I could show you a way to setup a planner that would contain your summary information and automatically calculate your grades and cumulative averages for you?
What if I could show you what all those strange formulas in Excel really mean and how to use those formulas?
I would like the opportunity to teach you what I know about Excel, and how it can make recordkeeping quick and efficient.
I will be holding a class on Wednesday, June 4, from 3-5pm.  It will be located in Rm. 115 of the main bldg. at the CBC Beaufort campus.
There will be no cost for this class, its free!!!  I just ask that you bring an open mind and a willingness to learn something new!!
It is not necessary to bring a laptop.  I will provide handouts which will detail the formulas covered in the session.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (803)625-0462 or (843)384-3853.
I look forward to seeing you Wednesday!
Michelle
