AI writes the formulas and the macros — hours of Excel work in seconds
A hands-on course on generating Excel formulas and VBA macros with ChatGPT to automate repetitive work. No coding knowledge needed to automate data cleanup, formatting, and dashboards.
What is AI-assisted Excel and VBA training?
This course shows people with no knowledge of functions or code how to generate Excel formulas and VBA macros with ChatGPT and automate repetitive work. Describing the data structure in text and asking for the code you need is enough to get real results even on the free tier, turning work that took hours into work that takes seconds. Instead of memorizing functions, participants learn how to describe a task to AI precisely — which is what lets anyone automate their own job.
No coding required
You never write code — you paste in the macro AI produced and run it.
Your own work
Participants bring their real Excel workload and automate it in the room.
Immediate payoff
You see hours of repetitive work collapse into seconds during the session.

Excel and VBA automation with AI — FAQ
Yes. The whole approach is to describe the problem to ChatGPT rather than memorize functions, so basic Excel data entry is enough to keep up.
You never write the code yourself. AI produces it, you paste it in and run it, and when an error appears you learn how to feed that back to AI and resolve it.
We cover the safe method: describe only the structure in text and get the code back, without uploading the real data. You also get a usage guide aligned to your security policy.
It does. Describe the data structure well and the free tier generates functions and VBA perfectly adequately. Exercises can run entirely on free accounts.
VBA runs on Mac, though some features differ. We check the participants' environment in advance and adjust how much weight the course puts on functions versus macros.
