Course Description

Overview:
Clearly, you use Excel a lot in your role. Otherwise, you wouldn't be taking this course. By now, you're
already familiar with Excel 2016, its functions and formulas, a lot of its features and functionality, and its
powerful data analysis tools.

You are likely called upon to analyse and report on data frequently, work in collaboration with others to
deliver actionable organizational intelligence, and keep and maintain workbooks for all manner of
purposes.

At this level of use and collaboration, you have also likely encountered your fair share of issues and
challenges. You're too busy, though, to waste time scouring over workbooks to resolve issues or to
perform repetitive, monotonous tasks.

You need to know how to get Excel to do more for you so you can focus on what's really important:
staying ahead of the competition. That's exactly what this course aims to help you do.

This course builds off of the foundational and intermediate knowledge presented in the Microsoft® Office
Excel® 2016: Part 1 and Part 2 courses to help you get the most of your Excel experience.

The ability to collaborate with colleagues, automate complex or repetitive tasks, and use conditional logic
to construct and apply elaborate formulas and functions will put the full power of Excel right at your
fingertips.

The more you learn about how to get Excel to do the hard work for you, the more you'll be able to focus
on getting the answers you need from the vast amounts of data your organization generates.

This course covers Microsoft Office Specialist exam objectives to help students prepare for the Excel
2016 Exam and the Excel 2016 Expert Exam.

Course Objectives:
Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to perform advanced data analysis,
collaborate on workbooks with other users, and automate workbook functionality.

You will:

• Work with multiple worksheets and workbooks.


• Use Lookup functions and formula auditing
• Share and protect workbooks.
• Automate workbook functionality.
• Create sparklines and map data.
• Forecast data.

Target Student:
This course is intended for students who are experienced Excel 2016 users and have a desire or need to
advance their skills in working with some of the more advanced Excel features.

Students will likely need to troubleshoot large, complex workbooks, automate repetitive tasks, engage in
collaborative partnerships involving workbook data, construct complex Excel functions, and use those
functions to perform rigorous analysis of extensive, complex datasets.

Prerequisites:
To ensure success, students should have practical, real-world experience creating and analysing
datasets using Excel 2016.

Specific tasks students should be able to perform include: creating formulas and using Excel functions;
creating, sorting, and filtering datasets and tables; presenting data by using basic charts; creating and
