Overview

What this course is about

Turn familiar Excel skills into dependable reporting ability through an advanced Excel course online with a personal teacher. You will organise raw sales, attendance, inventory and finance data, then use formulas and structured tables to answer business questions. The course emphasises accuracy, reusable methods and clear presentation, helping you move beyond manual totals and build reports suitable for regular MIS work.

Practice lookup and analysis techniques that are frequently requested in Indian offices. Lessons include XLOOKUP and VLOOKUP, INDEX and MATCH concepts, SUMIFS, COUNTIFS, nested IF logic, error handling, date analysis, named ranges and pivot tables. You will also create pivot charts, slicers, conditional formatting and interactive dashboards, with each topic applied to a realistic reporting task. Exercises use messy source data so you practise decisions, not just button sequences.

You will learn how Power Query can import, clean and combine recurring files, reducing repetitive copy and paste work. Live one-on-one sessions are available between 7 AM and 9 PM or on weekends, with feedback on your own practice workbook. Completion includes a certificate.
