The Adams County Economic Development Corporation, MERIT Center board, and Ivy Tech Community College have partnered to present a series of Microsoft Excel training workshops, according to an announcement by Colton Bickel, executive director of the Adams County Economic Development Corporation (ACEDC).
The workshop will have three sessions: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.
Bickel said participants are encouraged to attend all three to ensure that they are prepared for the higher-level skills used in the Advanced session.
He said the development of this Excel training series is the direct result of the success from the spring 2023 series and feedback from Adams County Businesses that expressed a need for employees to acquire or refresh certain skills related to Microsoft Excel.
“Adams County Economic Development Corporation is determined to provide our businesses and residents with opportunities for quality, relevant training programs that will ultimately allow for those businesses and residents to thrive,” Bickel said.
“We are excited and grateful that Ivy Tech Community College has joined us in making programs like these a reality in Adams County.”
The workshop series will meet on three consecutive Wednesdays: October 25, November 1 and 8, from 1-5 p.m. at the MERIT Center, 1109 Dayton Street in Decatur.
Tuition to attend all three workshops is $400; $150 for one.
Courtesy of the Adams County Community Foundation, the first 10 participants who register for the full program ($400) will receive a $50.00 scholarship (deducted).
