The internet provides some great resources to learn basic to advanced skills in various programs. If you haven’t figured me out, I love books and find them to be a great resource in learning new skills, but must admit that it is nice to have the visual on “how-to” do something. Here is a list of resources to check out various software tutorials.
Excel
Excel appears to have the most dedicated video tutorials on the web. Here are some suggested resources that have a nice selection of tutorials.

I remember this guy from three years ago, so he has been posting excel videos for a while. This is my favorite guy. He brings a lot of personality to it, speaks clearly, and provides great explanation.
Uses the “Playlists” feature. Pretty extensive and allows you to group your training on a related subject.

On his website you can view video tutorials on PowerPoint. It appears that he is putting together a Word video tutorials page, so I’m sure that is to come.
Cons:
Upload of new videos is a bit random.
