HAYS, Kan. -- "Introduction to Excel," the final workshop offered this fall by the Management Development Center at Fort Hays State University, will be 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, in the Stouffer Lounge of the Memorial Union.

Participants will have the opportunity to boost productivity, simplify data management and streamline everyday tasks using Excel.

Scott Jones, instructor of management, and Felix Albl, Prairie Village senior in tourism and hospitality management, will facilitate.

"We have a couple clients in the business community who have expressed interest in attending an Excel workshop," said MDC Director Sabrina William. "It should be very beneficial."

Participants will gain exposure to Excel by taking a tour of all the basics before learning how to build a worksheet from scratch utilizing formulas and functions. On completion of this half-day workshop, participants will have covered the basics of using charts, graphs, fonts, borders, shading and more.

Each person who completes the workshop will receive a completion certificate. The cost is $119, with registration prior to Oct. 29 appreciated. Hays Area Chamber of Commerce members are eligible for a 15-percent discount.
