Who Should Attend:
Any users of Microsoft Office products who would like to enhance their skills, learn expert tips, and receive advice to improve performance with their daily duties.
Webinar Overview:
This two-part course is for Excel users who regularly spend too much time manipulating data into the right format before they even begin to analyze it. Get and Transform (aka Power Query) can perform repetitive data cleansing such as deleting rows and columns, merging data from various data sources, and fixing layout issues without macros or VBA. Data source examples used in this class include Excel, comma-separated values, and text. However, the concepts taught can be applied to many different sources.
Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Create query connections to a variety of data sources.
- Cleanse data for use in an Excel PivotTable.
- Consolidate data from multiple datasets.
A quick-reference guide will also be provided that includes highlights of the course content, as well as additional tips and tricks.
Classes will be small to ensure interactive, personalized instruction.
Note: This course is taught from a Windows perspective. Apple users are welcome to join, but not all features are available for MacOS or function the same way that will be shown in class.
