I want to have a certificate for MS Excel Expert. However, I am not sure of its requirements or if there are any pre-requisites. I do not have any MS certifications yet.

Do I need to take MS Excel Associate or any other certification/exam first?

Thanks in advance.

    Hello,

     

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Normally, you do not need to obtain MS Excel Associate or other certifications first. You can directly apply for MS Excel Expert certification. However, it is recommended that you have a deep understanding and practical experience of Excel before the exam in order to better pass the exam. You can check the official website for more detailed information. Wishing you a smooth exam!

     

    Best regards,

    Jill Zhou
