Microsoft Office Specialist: Excel Certification Free!

The Accounting Area offers the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Excel Certification exam (Associate or Expert 2019) free to Accounting students. Accounting students enrolled in Introduction to Information Technology Management (BA230) are highly encouraged to take the Excel certification exam after completing the excel module. Students who (a) have declared Accounting as their Major or (b) have an “Intended Accounting” major as indicated in their official PAWs record are eligible for this opportunity.

Accounting students who bypass (do not take) BA230 (e.g., transfer students) will have free access to a Canvas course site with training videos and learning tools that cover all topics in the MOS Excel certification exam. Completion of the canvas modules will prepare students for the certification opportunities. These students are highly encouraged to complete the Excel training and take the exam in the semester they enroll in their 1st accounting course in the program.

The Exams will be administered in Lubar computer lab and will be offered multiple times in the Fall and Spring semesters. Contact Dr. Brown at brownvml@uwm.edu for more information on these opportunities.
