Some of the benefits of knowing PowerPivot include:
- No additional software, it is business intelligence built into the Excel you already have so you can sweat your software assets
- Easily link to multiple sources of information and pull them into a single database i.e. Excel files, text files, SQL files, Access databases and more into a single report
- Establish relationships between your databases, so no more time and space consuming VLOOKUP’s
- Handle more data- 100 million rows is possible
- Build live dashboards and re use them every month
- Clean your data on import and not as a separate exercise
- New formula allow for more options then traditional pivot tables
In order to do this course we recommend a skill level of >3.5, some knowledge of traditional pivot tables, and a version of Excel that has the PowerPivot feature (we offer a free Skills Assessment to make sure you get the correct level of training).
