In this article you can read more about the different levels of the challenges.

In the Library you can see an overview of all the tracks 5miles has to offer. Each track has a certain level: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.

Below are two examples of what a Beginner track looks like (See the Yellow Outlook tracks) and what an Intermediate track looks like (See the Green Excel tracks). But what exactly do these levels mean?

The Beginner tracks are intended for everyone who wants to learn an Office program or wants to refresh their knowledge of it. In the Beginner tracks we explain from the beginning how a program works. The tracks contain good tips that are very useful, even if you are already familiar with a program.

The Intermediate tracks are a step more difficult than the Beginner tracks. It is important that you master the skills from the Beginner tracks before you start on the Intermediate tracks. In these tracks you learn to work even more efficiently in all programs.

The Advanced tracks are designed to achieve an expert-level in the programs. These challenges can be much harder, and it is therefore important that you master the skills of the Beginner and Intermediate tracks. For example, in Excel there is a focus on building models and programs and in PowerPoint you will learn design tricks from professionals so that you become a master slide designer.

You can read how each track is structured, what the key benefits are and what impact the track has on your knowledge. Based on this, you can decide whether your level matches it. If you find it difficult to assess your level, you can do a short assessment for Excel, VBA, and PowerPoint (and soon also for Power BI) to find out where you can start best. You will find a link to this assessment under the Standard Curriculum of each subject.
