I suggest to replace all references to entire columns with actual cell addresses including the row numbers. Your data seems to span one year so you can replace $A:$A with $A$2:$A$367 in all your elaborate COUNTIFS formulas.

Hi, thanks for your reply to my thread!
Noted on cell Q5 on the Courses sheet, thanks for highlighting that 🙂
As per your suggestions, I've replaced $A:$A with $A$2:$A$367 in the COUNTIFS formulas, but gotten #VALUE! instead. Not quite sure what's happening here.
