Ninja Excel is a browser-based app designed to improve Excel Learning for companies and professionals. Integrated directly with Microsoft Excel 365, we put learners in a sandbox environment that optimizes effective learning habits, giving real-time feedback on hundreds of practical exercises applied to business spreadsheets.
Our learning solution boasts the following advantages as compared to traditional Excel learning methods:
• Learning by Doing - Instant feedback on exercises, unit assessments and exams.
• Unlimited access to Microsoft Certified Trainers who will guide you through any difficult concepts.
• Real-time progress tracking and KPIs for training admins – maximize ROI.
In 2024, Ninja Excel launched SECM – the Standardized Excel Certification Model.
While classic Excel learning has been broken up into Basic, Intermediate and Advanced – these categories were often vague and differed greatly from one training provider to another. What does it mean to put “Intermediate” Excel skills on a resume?
SECM standardizes the gamut of Excel knowledge into a 7-course system and, coupled with the Ninja Excel test, allows us to be intentional and specific to each organization’s needs.
SECM (Standardized Excel Certification Model)
A0 – Intro Level
A1 – Beginner
A2 – Elementary
B1 – Intermediate
B2 – Upper Intermediate
C1 – Advanced
C2 – Expert
The benefits of implementing Excel training in organizations are well-documented through various studies and industry insights:
• Improved Efficiency and Accuracy: Advanced Excel skills help employees automate tasks, reduce errors, and streamline data analysis, leading to more reliable decision-making. This minimizes costly mistakes, such as those seen in high-profile corporate errors attributed to spreadsheet inaccuracies.
• Enhanced Data Literacy: Training closes the data skills gap, equipping teams to better leverage data for insights and strategic planning. This capability is crucial as businesses increasingly adopt data-driven approaches.
• Increased Employee Productivity and Satisfaction: Familiarity with Excel’s advanced functions enable employees to handle complex tasks efficiently, boosting both job satisfaction and organizational productivity.
• Competitive Advantage: Organizations with Excel-proficient teams can react more swiftly to market changes and operational challenges, positioning themselves as leaders in their industries.
Why learn Excel in a Sandbox / Learning by Doing environment?
• A 2019 study by LinkedIn Learning found that 57% of employees prefer learning that is more hands-on, rather than passively consuming information.
• Cognitive scientists have noted that people remember 90% of what they do, compared to just 10% of what they read.
• Employees who engage in sandbox-style learning tend to develop problem-solving skills 40% faster than those taught in lecture-style formats.
Ninja Excel's learning platform allows leaders to comfortably upskill individuals, specific teams or the entire organization in one of the most ubiquitous, high-value skills currently used in business.
