Ah, Microsoft Excel. It’s been around since the ’80s and has still managed to not only remain relevant, but actually grow over the past few decades. It’s like the unicorn of spreadsheet software and is universally used by pretty much every office for one purpose or another. And the funniest part about it is most people don’t even know all that it’s capable of. While it’s prized for its simplicity, once you start using it, you quickly realise there’s more than meets the eye.
While originally touted as the ultimate spreadsheet program, Excel has gained popularity in the year 2020 as a way to analyse data. The most important tools for analysing data within the beast that is Excel are PivotTables, Power Query, Power Pivot, and DAX. Ever heard of them? If your answer is no and you’d like to dive deeper into data analysis, check out this Data Analysis with Excel and Power BI Bundle.
Through three distinct courses, you’ll dive into Excel’s data analysis tools with hands-on demos to give you a deeper understanding of its capabilities, as well as Microsoft Power BI — a totally different data beast.
First, you’ll dive into PivotTables, which are a great option for summarising, analysing, exploring, and presenting your data. They let you easily view your data from all different angles. In five hours of content, you’ll cover raw data structure, PivotTable layouts and styles, design, and formatting options, and more. You’ll discover how to sort, filter, and group, and actually analyse data from some real-world cases.
Next, you’ll get introduced to Power Query, Power Pivot, and DAX, Excel’s data modelling and business intelligence tools. With seven hours of content, this A to Z guide will have you using sample data from a fictional supermarket chain to get hands-on with Power Query; understanding the fundamentals of database design, basic DAX syntax, and powerful, commonly used functions; and exploring and analysing data models using Power Pivot and DAX.
And finally, you’ll get an overview of the elusive Microsoft Power BI. We know what you’re thinking: why do I need to learn Power BI if I already learned all the depths of Excel? Well, when you combine the two, you’ll be able to easily gather, shape, analyse, and explore business data in all-new ways. You can publish an Excel file to Power BI to share with others, analyse a Power BI dataset in Excel, or import Excel data or an entire workbook into Power BI for powerful visualisations. It’s like the best of both worlds. In this course, you’ll get up and running with Power BI and learn to implement the same tools used by professional analysts and data scientists.
Understandably, all this training is usually £462, but you can sign up on sale for only £19.25.
