Excel Essentials for Analytics (A Concise Introduction)




Excel Essentials for Analytics (A Concise Introduction)


My name is Julio Losada. I have postgraduate studies in Mathematics, Economics and Computer Science. For the past nine years I have worked in analytics across the Banking and FMCG industries.

Over this time, I have helped very busy colleges acquire essential Excel skills by keeping demonstrations simple and to the point. With this experience, I have identified the most commonly used Excel functionality applied in Analytics and created this course.


Excel Essential for Analytics (A Concise Introduction) is primarily geared towards graduates or busy professionals moving into an analytics role and needing to very quickly acquire relevant Excel skills.
