Microsoft Excel - Advanced

With Microsoft Excel, you will build strong skills in data analysis, spreadsheet design, and formula creation. Learn how to use functions, create charts and dashboards, manage large datasets, and apply advanced tools to improve accuracy, efficiency, and decision-making in the workplace.

Course Overview

Clearly, you use Excel a lot in your role. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be taking this course. By now, you’re already familiar with Excel, its functions and formulas, a lot of its features and functionality, and its powerful data analysis tools. You are likely called upon to analyze and report on data frequently, work in collaboration with others to deliver actionable organizational intelligence, and keep and maintain workbooks for all manner of purposes. At this level of use and collaboration, you have also likely encountered your fair share of issues and challenges. You’re too busy, though, to waste time scouring over workbooks to resolve issues or to perform repetitive, monotonous tasks. You need to know how to get Excel to do more for you so you can focus on what’s important: staying ahead of the competition. That’s exactly what this course aims to help you do.

This course covers Microsoft Office Specialist exam objectives to help students prepare for the Excel Exam and the Excel Expert Exam.
