Microsoft Excel - Power Pivot

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Are you ready to turbocharge your PivotTables? Power Pivot is a free Excel add in that allows you to perform powerhouse data analysis and modeling to make intelligent business decisions.

This Power Pivot online training, which Ken Puls has developed with a company called GoSkills, will help you step up your game and take your skills to new heights.

If you aren't familiar with this amazing tool, here are four reasons you will want to learn Power Pivot:

  1. Power Pivot makes analysis easy. You can output data visually to create a dashboard view that is easy to understand at a glance, even by clients or managers who aren’t experts with the data.
  2. Power Pivot can work with very large data sets. With the boom of big data not slowing down anytime soon, this is a huge benefit for data-hungry analysts, who can load millions of rows of data using Power Pivot that traditional spreadsheets can’t handle.
  3. Power Pivot allows you to leverage business intelligence technology right within Excel. Even small businesses or entrepreneurs can level up their data analysis and modeling, without needing to purchase expensive BI tools or bring in IT pros.
  4. Power Pivot saves you time. You no longer have to maintain a myriad of workbooks, or use complex formulas to create relationships between tables. Instead, keep all your data in one place and create relationships with a quick drag and drop.

Once you learn how to use Power Pivot, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.
