Is your organization looking to track key performance indicators for its fundraising team? Do you need to combine data from the Internet, other databases within your organization, and data streams in one document? Do you want to analyze millions of data points from your database, a prospect screening, and your organization’s website at lightning speed? Have you ever wished you could create data models that look like they cost a million dollars when your budget for the project is…not exactly a million dollars?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, then this course is made for you. In it, Greg Duke shows you PowerPivot, a recent addition to Microsoft Excel which creates powerful business intelligence tools that are easy to use and look great as part of any report or presentation. PowerPivot also creates PowerViews which allow you to send changeable data visualizations to your co-workers without having to send the underlying data. PowerPivot is just as powerful as its name sounds, and with Dr. Duke's LIVE interactive class, that power can be yours!
