You will begin by performing fundamental data-analysis tasks like creating tables and sorting and filtering data. You'll also start visualizing data with Excel through charts.

What's included

Microsoft® Excel® provides you with powerful features to help organize and analyze data, but once your analysis is complete, you have to communicate your findings. The people you report or present data to might not have the same comfort level or expertise when it comes to viewing worksheets. Further, viewing rows of numbers in tables is not a natural way for people to process information. To communicate effectively, you need to provide a simple, easy-to-digest view of relevant data so your audience can quickly understand what's really important.
