6-Hour Virtual Seminar on Learning the Highlights of Excel - A Complete Set of Useful Tools

Recorded Session
360 Minutes

Excel does far more than hold data in rows and columns. This 6-hour Excel training seminar shows you how to calculate, summarize and chart your data, find what matters with sorting and filtering, and protect your work from unwanted changes.

You'll start with formulas: entry rules, order of operations, functions, AutoSum, relative and absolute references and AutoFill. Next come sorting and filtering, then building and formatting charts. The session moves on to summarizing and analyzing data with PivotTables and PivotCharts.

Finally, you'll work with presentation elements such as pictures and shapes, and learn worksheet, workbook and file-level protection.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

This session gives you a well-rounded tour of Excel in one easy-to-follow workshop, from basic formulas and data sorting to PivotTables, shapes and pictures.

It suits business owners, executives, managers, accountants, CPAs, financial consultants, IT professionals, auditors, HR staff, bookkeepers, marketers and anyone who works with large amounts of data or uses Excel regularly and wants to be more productive.
