Overview of the webinar

There is a saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words”. In Excel that means finding ways to represent numerical data pictorially so that your audience can quickly and easily understand it. It's often easier to look at a chart, a graph or something visual than to just look at a set of figures.
In this session you will learn to create and enhance the appearance of traditional charts, learn how to create Sparkline charts (really useful in dashboards), learn how to create infographic-style charts and learn how to represent data in a visual way without using the charting features.
 

Who should attend?

This training is categorized as basic-to-intermediate. It is aimed at users who have little or no knowledge of how to produce visuals in Excel. Attendees should be familiar with how to navigate around an Excel workbook and how to enter and edit data.
The training will be delivered using Excel 2016 for Windows although for users of earlier versions, much of the functionality is available in Excel 2010 and 2013 (note - 3D Map is not available for Excel 2010).

Why should you attend?

Until a few years ago it was enough to take a set of numbers and create a bar chart or pie chart. Although in the right situation these traditional charts are still appropriate, things have moved on and we're constantly hearing words like Data Visualization and Infographic. It's time to get your Excel-related business and communication skills up to date and learn how to use it to present data in the modern world.
