PivotTables are one of the quickest ways to make sense of a large dataset in Microsoft Excel, and they don't need complex formulas. This 60-minute Excel PivotTables training covers the basics of data analysis for business insights.
Through guided examples, you'll prepare and structure data, build a PivotTable step by step, and arrange fields into rows, columns and values. You'll then calculate sums, counts and averages, filter with slicers, group dates and categories, and format the results into a clear report.
The session also shows how to create PivotCharts and refresh a PivotTable when new data arrives, so you can answer questions about trends, totals and comparisons with confidence.
