About the Program

The Advanced Data Modeling and Analytics Using Excel Training is designed to equip professionals with high-impact skills for managing, analyzing, and presenting data using Microsoft Excel. This hands-on program helps participants master the full potential of Excel by diving deep into advanced formulas, data modeling tools, and interactive visualizations.

Throughout the training, participants learn how to connect Excel with external platforms like Google Sheets, SharePoint, SQL databases, and CRMs. You will clean and structure large datasets using Power Query, apply powerful functions for complex analysis, and build dynamic pivot tables and dashboards that support real-time decision-making.

The course also focuses on integrating Excel with PowerPoint and Power BI for seamless reporting and storytelling. A practical case study allows you to apply your new skills in a real-world scenario, reinforcing your ability to handle data confidently and independently.

The program is offered both online and in-person and includes a certificate of completion.
