DESCRIPTION:Excel Level 2\nCourse Length:\n1 day \nCourse Description\nOverview:\nWhether you need to crunch numbers for sales\, inventory\, information technology\, human resources\, or other organizational purposes and departments\, the ability to get the right information to the right people at the right time can create a powerful competitive advantage. After all\, the world runs on data more than ever before and that’s a trend not likely to change\, or even slow down\, any time soon. But with so much data available and being created on a nearly constant basis\, the ability to make sense of that data becomes more critical and challenging with every passing day. You already know how to get Excel to perform simple calculations and how to modify your workbooks and worksheets to make them easier to read\, interpret\, and present to others. But\, Excel is capable of doing so much more. To gain a truly competitive edge\, you need to be able to extract actionable organizational intelligence from your raw data. In other words\, when you have questions about your data\, you need to know how to get Excel to provide the answers for you. And that’s exactly what this course aims to help you do. \n  \nCourse Objectives:\nUpon successful completion of this course\, you will be able to leverage the power of data analysis and presentation in order to make informed\, intelligent organizational decisions. \nYou will: \n\nWork with functions.\nWork with lists.\nAnalyze data.\nVisualize data with charts.\nUse PivotTables and PivotCharts.\n\n \nTarget Student:\nThis course is designed for students who already have foundational knowledge and skills in Excel and who wish to begin taking advantage of some of the higher-level functionality in Excel to analyze and present data. \n \nCourse Content \nLesson 1: Working with Functions\nTopic A: Work with Ranges \nTopic B: Use Specialized Functions \nTopic C: Work with Logical Functions \nTopic D: Work with Date & Time Functions \nTopic E: Work with Text Functions \nLesson 2: Working with Lists\nTopic A: Sort Data \nTopic B: Filter Data \nTopic C: Query Data with Database Functions \nTopic D: Outline and Subtotal Data \nLesson 3: Analyzing Data\nTopic A: Create and Modify Tables \nTopic B: Apply Intermediate Conditional Formatting \nTopic C: Apply Advanced Conditional Formatting \nLesson 4: Visualizing Data with Charts\nTopic A: Create Charts \nTopic B: Modify and Format Charts \nTopic C: Use Advanced Chart Features \nLesson 5: Using PivotTables and PivotCharts\nTopic A: Create a PivotTable \nTopic B: Analyze PivotTable Data \nTopic C: Present Data with PivotCharts \nTopic D: Filter Data by Using Timelines and Slicers \n\n\n\nThis event ticket will close at 12:00 pm the day before the event.
