‘From Spreadsheet to Strategy’ session to be offered by Stafford School of Business
“From Spreadsheet to Strategy: Small Business Analytics in the Age of AI” is set for July 16-17, the latest session offered to the community by the Stafford School of Business at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
The school will offer a two-day workshop on practical ways to use spreadsheets, analytics and AI tools to improve business operations and make more informed business decisions.
The workshop will be held in-person at Lewis Hall on ABAC’s Tifton campus, 2802 Moore Highway, Tifton, GA 31793. Virtual attendance will also be available.
Participants will earn one badge for participation, which is part of a new certification program at the SSB. After earning three badges, participants will receive a Stafford School of Business Certification. The certification will communicate proficiency and flexibility in a variety of business-focused skills. Badges will be offered at select workshops and all “Money Matters Bootcamp” events.
“The businesses that do well in the years ahead will be the ones that understand their own numbers,” said Stafford School of Business Professor Abul Sheikh. “We put this workshop together for small business professionals in our community who want practical skills — no complicated software, no tech background needed. We start with Excel, take a look at what AI can do, and walk away with tools you can actually use the next day.”
Session content will focus on profit-based and small businesses. Participants are required to bring their own laptop (Windows or Mac) to this session.
Workshop schedule:
• Thursday, July 16: 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
