Event Description:
Whether you need to build an Excel-based dashboard, perform some serious data analysis, or simply summarize data for a personal project, Pivot Tables are one of the most powerful tools in Excel’s data analysis and Business Intelligence (BI) toolkit.
With just a few clicks of the mouse (and no complicated formulas!) you can quickly and easily build the reports, dashboards and charts that help you to summarize, analyze, interpret and understand your data which in turn helps you to spot trends and get answers to the important questions on which you base your key business decisions.
However, Pivot Tables suffer from several limitations, leaving users frustrated and looking for workarounds. Enter Power Pivot, a free pre-installed add-in from Microsoft. Power Pivot helps you to overcome those limitations.
Why you should attend:
From global enterprises to early-stage startups and small businesses, people everywhere use Pivot Tables to summarize and understand their data. Learning how to create Pivot Tables is one of the must have skills for anyone who needs to use Excel to quickly build reports and summaries. This training will provide you with a solid foundation that you can use to build your own pivot tables and reports.
Who should attend:

You don’t have to be proficient in the use of Excel to attend. If you can create basic worksheets and can copy and paste and apply basic formatting to cells, you’ll be able to follow along.
