About This Course

Enter the very hot world of BI, Power Pivot, DAX, and big data. This investment of your time is a no brainer.

This course takes up where the Optima Train Excel 2013 Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts course leaves off. It has two primary themes, each ultimately related to data analysis with pivot tables. First, it teaches you a number of methods for importing external data (from a database, text files, or other sources) into Excel for analysis. Second, it devotes considerable time to the PowerPivot add-in originally introduced with Excel 2010 and now included (with a new look) in Excel 2013. To learn Excel PowerPivot & Advanced Business Intelligence Tools quickly and effectively, download the companion exercise files so you can follow along with the instructor by performing the same actions he is showing you on the videos.

this is more basic than I expected. He's still explaining how access works and I just took an entire course on it.

The beginning sets good groundwork. As you get towards the middle, it is quite helpful to follow along and perform the examples provided by the teacher. It would be helpful to have an example we would need to perform on our own to cement the information.

Even though the instructor knows the subject matter, and reading a good material, but most of the time there are just audio not slides or videos, It seems that he must have spent time in writing scripts, did not give much effort to create videos. It is always better to see and listen together.
Overall this is a good course.
