Advanced Excel for Business and Industry

How our class will boost your Excel skills.

Our 1-day class shows you how to build powerful self-adjusting Excel business tools and reports. Our class starts off with how to use Power Query along with Excel tables; various filtering functions; and spill over arrays to quickly create autonomous reports.

In addition, our training shows how to build advanced lookups; logic formulas; and array formulas to solve tough data problems. Also discussed is how to use LAMBDA to create your own custom worksheet functions.

It also shows how to combine PivotTables, Pivot Charts, Conditional Formatting, shapes, and linked pictures to rapidly build dashboards and reports.
