Advanced Excel Simplified for Financial Analysis

Why Attend

The fact is that Excel is the accountants’, finance, and business professionals’ best friend. Companies everywhere are overwhelmed by the abundance of unstructured and unclean data. Monthly, quarterly and annual closings are immensely data-driven and require moving and exporting data from ‘ERPs’ and databases to Excel. This hands-on course will advance your data massaging, modeling, integration, and automation skills to new levels. You will also master normalization and massaging of noisy data, preparation of reports, analysis, and reconciliation.

This is an Excel-based course allowing you to develop an exclusive level of expertise and add immediate value to your job and company.
