Principales reseñas sobre DATA VISUALIZATION WITH ADVANCED EXCEL
One of the Best course which make data visualization simple for me. It help me to enhance my Microsoft Skills, I will recommend it to anyone who wants to visualize data or anyhow related to business.
Nice, especially part with dashboards. I was pretty familiar with all techniques, but it good to have an understanding of what big company is expecting from you.
Just so much to learn... With the lessons here, an activity that would cost 30min time to execute should take 10min or less if the tools are utilized... Excel has lots of magic hidden wands!
This course was really useful to learn how to use really useful tools for business in Excel. I feel that I am really satisfied with what I learned through this course. Widely recommended.
