1. Welcome to the Lookups Course: Welcome to Excel lookups for data analysis course. My name is Chen do. In this course you will learn how to use Excel formulas like VLookup x lookup, index match, HLookup filter. And how to combine these functions for various practical situations in your line of work. We start off with basic usage of all the important lookup functions in Excel. And then I'm going to teach techniques like the index match formula. We look up how to do all the matching results with a lookup formula. How to perform a multiple criteria lookup. How to consolidate data into tables using lookups about to perform lookup on derive with columns, and how to write lookups that return multiple column outputs. We're also going to look at common errors that happen when you are writing lookups in how to fix them easy. There is a lot of valuable content in this course, but everything is so tightly packed and produced in a concise manner so that you will learn maximum, in the minimum amount of time each lesson comes with a video and an example. I suggest that you download the workbooks, practice the lookup concepts, and learn as we go. There are some homework example problems for you to figure it out, as well as a class project using some lookup formulas. I highly recommend that you complete this homework problems and the class project and share your outcomes with us in the community area. I run a popular Excel and Power BI website called Chengdu.org.

Need them. I'm super excited to have you in this course. I wish you all the awesomeness in lookups.
