| Excel 2021/365 Level 2 | What is the purpose of Excel Level 2? Level 2 is paced just right with another three days. Not only has level one made us more efficient, it has gotten us ready for advanced data analysis. We are going to learn how to make sense of all that data. In the beginning there were numbers, but the numbers didn’t know where to go. Who would bring madness to the chaos? Students of level 2 will be charged with herding the numbers into neatly designed tables. From those tables, the numbers will be grouped and those groups named. Methods of filtering and sorting abound. You’ll be exposed to new features that enable you to get the numbers just right. We use advanced analysis tools to quickly measure, check or develop metrics for a sample business. Together we explore charts, graphs, style and flair. We cover options to establish, expand or simply keep on brand. Once the data is evaluated and the style is just so, it is time to share it. We’ll learn ways to collaborate with colleagues. We’ll finish with several ways to protect your hard work. This class will cover Excel 2021 LEVEL 2. | 3 | false | true | false | true | false | false | false | $109 | $196 | false | In Class | ||||
