Microsoft Excel PivotTables

Recorded Session
90 Minutes

Microsoft Excel PivotTables and PivotCharts turn raw data into clear business insight without advanced formulas. This 90-minute Excel PivotTables training starts with setting up your source data correctly, then shows how to build PivotTables and PivotCharts that summarize large datasets.

You'll learn to aggregate data with metrics such as sum, average and count, group and segment it to find patterns, format the results for readable reports and data storytelling, and drill down or up for deeper analysis.

The session finishes with interactive dashboards built with slicers, so users can explore several scenarios on their own and reach decisions faster. It is aimed at business professionals who want to get from data to understanding quickly.
