Do you work with 'Big Data'? Do you import, manipulate and analyze massive datasets in Excel? If so you'll already be familiar with the limitations of Excel. Power Pivot and Power Query, two free addins for Excel, are designed to get you past these limitations, allowing you to import and work with 1-million-plus-row datasets from virtually any source.

If you ever need to create pivot tables from multiple datasets, Power Pivot is your friend. No more vlookup. No more multiple consolidation ranges. If you've been frustrated by other limitations of pivot tables then Power Pivot is for you. Simply put, Power Pivot takes pivot tables and data analysis to the next level. If you're a fan of pivot tables, you'll love Power Pivot.

Power Pivot and Power Query are free addins for Excel, written by Microsoft (in fact in Excel 2016 and later Power Query is built into the application and not an addin at all).

Power Pivot puts the "power" into Pivot Tables (hence the name!), removing many of limitations and frustrations that many advanced users find with Pivot Tables (such as creating pivot tables from multiple lists and creating pivot tables from large datasets)

Why Should You Attend:

Power Query is used to import data into Excel from other sources (such as CSV files, text files, web pages, databases or SharePoint) and then clean that data to make it useable (cleaning refers to things like removing duplicate rows, removing blank rows, removing unnecessary columns, converting case, changing date formats and more).

If you work with, analyze and generate reports from large datasets, having a good understanding and working knowledge of Power Query and Power Pivot is a must!

Key Topics Covered:

  • Importing data into Power Pivot - the why and how
  • Using the Data Model to create and manage relationships
  • The benefits of using the Data Model
  • Creating a Pivot Table from related Excel tables
  • Creating a Pivot Table from related data sources (including external sources)
  • An introduction to the DAX formula language to create simple calculated columns
  • Using the Query Editor to clean and transform data
