Data visualization is more than just building graphs, it’s trying to determine the best way to showcase your business problems, opportunities, strategies, and growth. Learn which data visuals tell the best story, depending on your business objective.

Some experience building a table or graph in Excel and knowledge of basic statistics (averages, range, etc.) such as from the Excel Accelerator is expected.

This course is intended for anyone interested in trying to learn more from their data and share the results in a visually appealing and compelling way. Explore creative and visual data displays (graphs & tables) and identify the best Excel tools in your data storytelling toolkit.

Expectation – interest in trying Excel, self-motivation, basic Excel understanding (such as from the Accelerator: Intro to Excel)
