Excel is a powerful application that can help in generating reports. This is exactly why we offer this training. To ensure that individuals are aware of the basics of Excel to help do tasks quickly and efficiently. It will also help you understand how much you can do with Excel. Additionally, it will increase the effectiveness of the reports and presentations that you use Excel to prepare.
More often than not, you invest a great deal of effort into sorting out all your workbook data and calculations. It would be a real shame if some, or all, of this effort, is wasted because the end product that you rely on, or present to others, isn’t as effective as it could be and doesn’t make the required impact. Some of Excel’s most powerful, but least obvious, features can help you turn an unremarkable set of figures into a graphical presentation that provides real insight and drives important decisions.
