Description

Introduction

Introduction

An introduction to the course

Working with Data

Importing and Cleaning Data

As a Marketer, it’s incredibly important to have up-to-date, clean data. In this lesson we apply some common edits to unusable data to clean it up for use.

Counting Items Based on Certain Criteria

This lesson will show you COUNTIF and COUNTIFS that will allow you to quickly gather insights from your data based on the frequency of information.

Merging Data from Different Lists

XLOOKUP and VLOOKUP enable you to merge data to add greater context to the data.

Analyzing Data

Tables to Make Life Easier

If you often work with data sets that are quite large, then you might consider using an Excel table. Tables have a lot of functionality automated and make life easier.

Sort & Filter with Tables

If you have a large dataset, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with too much information. Sorting and filtering help you reduce large amounts of data so that you can focus on only the relevant data.

Pivot Tables from Tables

You often need to make sense of data using a variety of reports and stats. Pivot tables help you do just that.

Conditional Formatting to Dynamically Add Color to Reports

Conditional formatting can highlight items based on rules you set and, as the data changes and other data meets the requirements, your highlights will change automatically.

Visualizing Data

Charts as a Visualization Tool

In our quest to visually represent data, a chart is indispensable.

Dashboards to Display Critical Information at a Glance

Having a macro-level - or a birds-eye view - of your marketing efforts is essential. It allows you to see trends, make better business decisions, and point out areas to investigate.

Automating the Process

Use Power Query to do the Heavy Lifting

Power Query automates the process of getting data into a table and performing routine edits.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
