Power Pivot is an Excel add-in you can use to perform powerful data analysis and create sophisticated data models. With Power Pivot, you can mash up large volumes of data from various sources, perform information analysis rapidly, and share insights easily.
In this course, Microsoft certified trainer Barbara Evers will show you everything you need to know to install and start using Power Pivot in Excel. You’ll learn how to add tables to data models, create and use KPIs, work with dates, and use the powerful DAX functionality. Then, you’ll view the results of your work in familiar PivotTables.
