I'm trying the CONTAINS and HAS formula and neither seem to work

I'm trying to count the number of times a word appears within a column range on another sheet; however, the cells I'm referencing have a dropdown so there may be more than 1 value per cell. I may be entering the formula wrong or not entering the right formula.

Try to use this ( Below ), I think you need to use the COUNTIF/ COUNTIFS to start things off, then use CONTAINS as follows:

=COUNTIFS({Live Compliance Training Tracker Master Data Topic}, CONTAINS("Policy Governance", @cell))

That worked! Thank you so much. I've been trying to get it right for 3 days. I really appreciate it.
