Managing Data with Excel (Course Id 2714)

This course shows you how to take basic rows and columns of data and turn it into useful information that can be incorporated into the decision-making process. We start with Excel’s simple basic Database features of sorting and filtering data and then look at subtotals and nested subtotals.
