Webinar Description

Excel is one of the most powerful tools in today’s workplace. You will almost always see in job postings for management jobs, including HR positions, that Excel skills are required. HR professionals need to organize, analyze and communicate data, which is the purpose of Excel.

In HR, it is virtually impossible to do compensation, benefits, project management or any HR function without knowing some Excel, and it is impossible to be a true business partner without knowing Excel. Using Excel is not merely having the ability to enter names into lists. Excel saves you time while bringing understanding to piles of data. Before Excel, it could take weeks to organize, analyze and present data that can now be accomplished better in an afternoon.

The power of Excel is the ability to use the data entered into its spreadsheets to perform mathematical calculations as well as other financial functions. Excel’s functions can provide answers for simple to complex statistical and financial questions. Pivot tables allow you to slice and dice data to gather significance from data. Connections between data can be represented visually as charts, graphs, or histograms to provide better understanding.
