About Course
It’s time to show Excel who’s boss. Whether you’re starting from square one or aspiring to become an absolute Excel power user, you’ve come to the right place.
This course will give you a deep understanding of the advanced Excel formulas and functions that transform Excel from a basic spreadsheet program into a dynamic and powerful analytics tool.
While most Excel courses focus on simply what each formula does, I teach through hands-on, contextual examples designed to showcase why these formulas are awesome and how they can be applied in a number of ways.
I will not train you to regurgitate functions and formula syntax; I will teach you how to think like Excel.
By the end of the course, you’ll be writing robust, elegant formulas from scratch, allowing you to:
- Easily build dynamic tools and Excel dashboards to filter, display and analyze your data
- Create your own formula-based Excel formatting rules
- Join datasets from multiple sources with XLOOKUP, INDEX and MATCH functions
- Manipulate dates, times, text, and arrays
- Automate tedious and time-consuming tasks using cell formulas and functions in Excel (no VBA required!)
- Pull real-time data from APIs directly into Excel (weather, stock quotes, directions, etc.)
We’ll dive into a broad range of Excel formulas and functions, including:
- Lookup/Reference functions
- Statistical functions
- Formula-based formatting
- Date and Time functions
- Logical operators
- Dynamic Array formulas
- Text functions
- INDIRECT & HYPERLINK
- Web scraping with WEBSERVICE & FILTERXML
