Microlearning
for practical Excel training
Short lessons with clear objectives and measurable progress. Each class focuses on one Excel skill, with automatic validation and live support from Microsoft Office Specialists.
How does microlearning work in practice?
At Ninja Excel, microlearning is built around short, focused lessons that learners can apply immediately in real Excel.
Here’s how it works within the platform:
-
1Short capsules:
Every lesson covers one formula, function, or concrete Excel procedure.
-
2Immediate practice:
Learners apply the concept right away in live Excel and receive automatic feedback.
-
3Structured certification:
Each learning route combines Units, Chapters (lessons), and Checks, ending with a final exam that verifies mastery.
-
4Expert support:
The Online Teacher, staffed by Microsoft Office Specialists, supports learners with technical and methodological questions.
Microlearning designed for steady progress
A Ninja Excel lesson is built to teach one practical skill in just a few minutes, apply it immediately in real Excel, and validate the result without breaking the learner’s pace.
-
Average time per class
3 minutes of explanation, 2 minutes applying the concept, 2 minutes fixing errors — about 7 minutes for a complete class.

F.A.Q.
How are certifications structured with microlearning?
A certification follows a simple path: Units → Chapters (classes) → Checks.
At the end, learners take a final exam to confirm mastery of the level.
For example, a B1 certification may include six units, each with its own classes and checks, followed by the final exam that grants the official certificate.
How long is each class?
Most classes take 3 to 7 minutes to complete.
The class focuses on a single Excel skill, such as VLOOKUP, PivotTables, or Conditional Formatting, and ends with a quick validation check in the platform.
How is team progress measured?
We send regular progress reports to the training lead. These reports include:
- Training start and end dates
- Participant name, last name, and email
- Assigned certification
- Percentage of progress within the certification
- Final exam score
Who answers questions during the training?
Questions are answered directly through the Online Teacher, staffed by Microsoft Office Specialists.
For example, if someone struggles with a formula like SUMIFS, they can ask inside the platform and get help from a certified expert.
What additional resources support microlearning in the platform?
Chapters include downloadable glossaries and summaries to reinforce the lesson.
When the certification is complete, learners receive a certificate with a verification QR code. The company logo can be added if needed.
Which teams benefit most from microlearning?
Microlearning is especially helpful for roles that work with data, particularly in:
- Finance and Accounting: speeding up reports and reducing errors
- Operations and Logistics: supporting inventory work, forecasting, and daily workflows
- Data and Analytics: enabling advanced formulas, data handling, and PivotTable analysis
