Is your team trying to turn data assets into actionable insights?
Excel intermediate is for people who already work comfortably with Excel (can modify worksheets and create simple formulas) but want to start working more efficiently, using a broader selection of tools and harnessing Excel’s automation capabilities.
In this course we will explore a broad range of Excel functions for cleaning and transforming data, we’ll use conditional formatting to identify trends and anomalies as well as conditional logic.
We will unpack the VLOOKUP and XLOOKUP functions and finish off with looking at how we can analyse data with pivot tables and produce interactive dashboards with pivot charts and slicers.

THE COURSE CURRICULUM
This government tailored training taking place over two consecutive business days is designed to help you develop the fundamental skills in bit size chunks; skills that will be directly applicable to your day-to-day business activities. The staggered approach enables you time to digest the information, put it into practice and return the following morning to pick up where you left off, with your new information still fresh in the memory. The final day will culminate in a personal project where you will demonstrate your newly acquired skills and develop your own stunning Microsoft Excel report. You can then share these dashboards with teams, business partners and publish them to the web.
