Learn how to transform raw data into visually appealing and meaningful reports using Microsoft® Excel®.
No matter what business you are in, a report is a critical tool in your communication armory. As with any communication tool, presentation is everything. Get it right and it offers the reader (typically a CEO, shareholder or project manager) a valuable insight into the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) upon which a business or project is measured. Get it wrong and you'll end up with something that nobody understands and nobody wants to read. You'll learn not only how to turn raw data into meaningful information but also how to present that data in a visually attractive way.
