Overview: Excel has a variety of tools like sorting, filtering, and subtotal to manage large lists of data, but if you need to analyze all that data and do it quickly, there's no better feature than a PivotTable. You can quickly create a compact summary report (based on tons of data) without needing to write complex formulas or rely on lengthy techniques. The PivotTable feature is perhaps Excel's best analytical tool and in addition to its speed, you get amazing flexibility and dynamism that let you quickly change the data interrelationships you're viewing. Most PivotTable users discover that the feature is relatively easy to learn, but not so easy if you are simply seeing the instructions on the printed page; this is a visually-oriented feature based on displaying fields in different locations. You'll be amazed to see how, in very little time, you can create a complete summary report with tons of data and you won't even need to write formulas and rely on obscure techniques.

Why should you Attend:
You will learn the following in this seminar, The quickest and best ways to create PivotTables and Pivot Charts, including these capabilities

The following subjects will be covered in detail:
  • How to compare two or more fields in a variety of layout styles
  • How to sort and filter results
  • How to perform ad-hoc grouping of information
  • How to use Slicers instead of filters to identify which field elements are displayed
  • How to drill down to see the details behind the summary
  • How to categorize date/time data in multiple levels
  • How to create a Pivot Chart that is in sync with a PivotTable
  • How to add calculated fields to perform additional analysis
  • How to hide/reveal detail/summary information with a simple click
  • How to deal with dynamic source data and the "refresh" concept
  • How to create a PivotTable based on data from multiple worksheets

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • Pre-requisites for source data - preparing data so that it can be analyzed by PivotTables
  • Creating a PivotTable with a minimum number of steps, including the Recommended PivotTables option
  • Manipulating the appearance of a PivotTable via dragging and command techniques
  • Using Slicers to accentuate fields currently being shown (and which ones are not)
  • Using the new (in Excel 2013) Timeline feature
  • Creating ad hoc and date-based groupings within a PivotTable
  • Quickly create and manipulate a Pivot Chart to accompany a PivotTable

Who Will Benefit:
  • Excel users who are familiar with PivotTable concepts, but need expanded techniques to analyze lists of data
  • Anyone needing to know how to create PivotTables from multiple sources, use Slicers, Timelines, Calculated Fields, and Conditional Formatting will benefit from this course

Overview: An Excel formula is an equation or calculation that is stored in a worksheet cell. A formula enables you to perform simple or complex calculations on numbers. So think of any scenario that involves addition, subtraction, division or multiplication and that's where you'd use a formula. Functions are built-in formulas that have been programmed to perform a specific calculation. They range from simple such as SUM and AVERAGE (used to calculate the total and average of numbers in a range of cells) to the powerful IF and VLOOKUP.

Functions aren't limited to calculating numeric data. They can save you a ton of time when working with text and dates too.
  • Need to calculate someone's age from their date of birth?
  • Need to combine text items from several cells into a single cell?
  • Need to convert a list of lower case text items to capital letters?
  • Need to compare items in two lists?

All of the above (and much more!) can be done with using Excel functions

Why should you Attend:
Although it is perfectly possible to use Excel without ever creating a formula if you don't, you're missing out on a huge part of the application's power.

Learning how to create formulas will automate your calculations and save you a ton of time. No more using your fingers. No more mental arithmetic. No more using the calculator app on your Smartphone! Let Excel do the work for you!

Excel has over 450 built-in Worksheet Functions (pre-defined formulas). Nobody needs to know them all however, no matter what your job role is, no matter what industry you work in, there are some key Functions that everyone should know how to use. This training will address those Functions.

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • Creating formulas to perform mathematical calculations
  • Copying a formula - the Gotchas you need to know about
  • Cell Names - how to make formulas logical and understandable
  • Combining text strings from multiple cells
  • Converting text from lowercase to uppercase and vice versa
  • Performing calculations on dates and times
  • Logical functions (IF, COUNTIF, SUMIF, and more)
  • VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, INDEX, and MATCH
  • GETPIVOTDATA
  • Trapping Errors - Using functions to bullet-proof your worksheets
  • Creating complex functions the easy way

Who Will Benefit:
  • Any Excel user who needs to go beyond the basics of using formulas or simply wants to become more comfortable and productive in using Excel formulas and functions
  • Any Excel user who deals with large lists needs these tools and techniques to effectively manage the lists and become more productive. Nearly all Excel users, except for those just getting started, are candidates for this webinar

Overview: "Every Picture Tells a Story" is a popular saying which is true not only in everyday life but in Excel too. Behind every set of numerical data is a story waiting to be told. The telling of this story needs to be succinct, easy to understand and engaging. For most people, it's much easier to understand data, uncover important insights and make better decisions if that data is displayed in a visual way.

Data visualization is the representation of numerical data in a visual format so that your audience can quickly and easily understand it and gain insight from it.

This training covers how to visually represent your data using traditional charts (bar charts, line charts, etc.)

Learning Objectives:
  • Learn how to select the most appropriate chart to convey your message
  • Learn how to create a chart from a set of data and change its appearance
  • Learn how to create infographic-style charts
  • Learn how to integrate Excel charts with other applications such as Word and PowerPoint
Why should you Attend:
Until a few years ago it was enough to take a set of numbers and with a couple of mouse clicks, create a basic chart. But things have moved on and now it's time to get your Excel-related business and communication skills up to date and learn how to use it to present data in the modern world.

Areas Covered in the Session:
  • Selecting the appropriate visual
  • Creating a basic chart (bar, column, line, pie)
  • Changing the chart type and data source
  • Dynamic charts - automate adding new data to a chart
  • From Drab to Fab - convert a basic chart into an eye-catching visual
  • Fill the bars with images and shapes to create infographic-style charts
  • Creating a chart from a pivot table - the gotchas
  • Using Excel charts with other applications

Who Will Benefit:
  • This training is categorized as introductory. It is aimed at users who have little or no knowledge of how to produce charts and represent data visually in Excel. Although the training will be delivered using the latest version of Excel, this training is relevant for users of Excel 2010 and above
