About the Course

Spreadsheet tools like Excel are an essential tool for working with data - whether for data analytics, business, marketing, or research. This course is designed to give you a basic working knowledge of Excel and how to use it for analyzing data. This course is suitable for those who are interested in pursuing a career in data analysis or data science, as well as anyone looking to use Excel for data analysis in their own domain. No prior experience with spreadsheets or coding is required - all you need is a device with a modern web browser and the ability to create a Microsoft account to access Excel online at no cost. If you have a desktop version of Excel, you can also easily follow along with the course. Throughout this course, you'll gain valuable experience working with data sets and spreadsheets. We'll start by introducing you to spreadsheets like Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, and show you how to load data from multiple formats. From there, you'll learn how to perform basic data wrangling and cleansing tasks using functions, and expand your knowledge of data analysis through the use of filtering, sorting, and pivot tables. There is a strong focus on practice and applied learning in this course. With each lab, you'll have the opportunity to manipulate data and gain hands-on experience using Excel. You'll learn how to clean and format your data efficiently, and convert it into a pivot table to make it more organized and readable. The final project will allow you to showcase your newly acquired data analysis skills by working with real data sets and spreadsheets. By the end of this course, you'll have a solid foundation in using Excel for data analysis. You'll have worked with multiple data sets and spreadsheets, and will have the skills and knowledge needed to effectively clean and analyze data without having to learn any code. So let's get started!...

it's amazing how the course was designed for beginner,. Modules were easy to follow and Labs were also very clear. I am very happy with the accomplishment but his is only the beginning of a new time.

Overall this was a refresher for me. I was able to reconnect with some of the Excel functions and can now apply those to my current job. The teachings and exercises I found useful and easy to follow.

The actual lessons using Excel could be better, for example at the beginning of each chapter clearly show people where to get the excel file, you should be able to download it and follow along with each lesson.

Good course content however peer graded system is unreliable. Received a fail grade for the assignment, resubmitted with no changes and received full marks. Would expect better from a course I am paying for.

Downloading the data has been exceptionally difficult. Unless I have a way of downloading the data, I will not be able to finish the 5th week. All of the down loads, none worked properly. I did work arounds to to get and work on the seven Labs.

Otherwise, if I wasn't trying to get get a certification, the information is very good. The labs are extremely difficult to download. Excel doesn't allow me to upload on the web. It has a download, which is only on this computer. I tried another computer, and some of it worked, but the last assignment, not at all.

I was expecting the course to be having more advance excel features for data analysis and some troubleshooting. The course was pretty basic for someone who has not seen MS Excel in their entire life which I highly doubt exists as office is an application that's installed in almost all computers who use microsoft.

No funcionan las partes prácticas de Excel. Un timo, un engañabobos. Una pérdida de tiempo y de dinero, lo reporté y no se arregla nada. Y te cobran igual. Le doy una estrella para poder enviar la calificación, pero obviamente se merece 0 estrellas. Lamentable.

Was all good until I got charged £37 for using their 7 day free trial. This course has no obvious way to cancel the subscription, and no way to request refunds - coursera clearly knows what they are doing.
