How is the course structured?
The course curriculum has been designed as a project-based, crash course. You will learn rapidly by working through the Twitter dataset to understand rudimentary data analysis and design novel heatmaps. Then in the latter half of the course, you will learn how to work with modern Excel tables and manipulate them using the Power Query tool, structured referencing, and using the functions available on Office 365 version of Excel to craft automated calculations and dashboards.
The course builds on itself, meaning that as we continue forward in the course we'll re-use the concepts from previous sections to further reinforce them. All of the material is 100% example-based and we'll use multiple real-life examples throughout the course.
The course is composed of 18 short lectures each of which covers one concept at a time, and 2 problem-solving sessions (data challenges). The full course length is 1.8 hours of well thought out, deliberate content to get you building and designing within Excel. You will also get over 1 hour of practice problems which are very detailed and cover real-life analytical scenarios.
I designed this course to be as practical and as relatable as possible by using sample data from real-life activities. The course is complete with working files, you'll be able to follow along practising each concept and receive a verifiable certificate of completion when you finish the course!
