Creating a spreadsheet.

As mentioned, a spreadsheet is designed in "rows" and "columns". This helps to keep the information you are entering organised and easy to read.

Let's think about the information you have and how you want to present it in a spreadsheet.

You have researched the career you have chosen and found the types of related jobs, the training involved and the number of years required for training. You have also researched the universities or colleges where people can train for these careers. You can include all this information and create some new information from it. You can do a calculation to determine the total cost of training for a particular career.

Here is an example:

Notice the column headings. They are straightforward and easy to understand. You can use this example as a guide to name your column headings. Don't worry about formatting, you can deal with that later.

Next, you will learn how to enter data into your spreadsheet.
