Learn advanced PivotTable techniques to create a dynamic and automated dashboard in Excel!

PivotTables are more than just tools for analyzing your dataset. You can use PivotTables to create charts that update dynamically when your raw data updates. This class is all about creating an integrated dashboard with PivotCharts, Sparklines, and more. The best part is that your dashboard can update automatically if set up correctly with PivotTables.

Alongside Al, you'll learn how to:

Create a variety of visualizations like Sparklines, Data Bars, and Map charts
Organize your charts on a dashboard
Add Slicers to make it easy for your teammates to filter the data shown on the dashboard
Connect PivotTables to your dashboard to make updating your dashboard a breeze

Set up your dashboard with PivotTables, Slicers, and more so that your teammates can interact with your dashboard easily. You'll also save time by automating your dashboard which prevents manual updates. You'll be actively using the Excel workbook I created for this class (see Projects & Resources).
