Course Description
Do you work with charts but struggle to identify which chart to use?
Are you new to data analysis?
Do you want to learn about the charting options Excel 2013/2010 offers?
Are you looking for a structured way to learn about the Excel charting tools?
If your answer was YES to some of the questions, this course might be of interest to you.
When I created this course I put full emphasis on a structured and didactically sound way to gently show you how data visualization in Excel 2013 works. This course is especially suited towards a beginners audience to data visualization with Excel.
Most of the concepts of this course also apply to Excel 2010, so you might also consider this course if you are on 2010.
Beginners to data analysis often need a clear understanding of which chart type is suitable for a given dataset. I will give you this important knowledge right at the beginning so that you know from the start what you are dealing with and how you can utilize that knowledge.
I will also show you step by step all you need to know about the basic chart formatting tools. You will learn how to add elements, format axes, change colors and so on.
There is also a section about the frequently used types of charts and how you can easily create them in Excel.
At the end of this beginners course you should be confident in using Excel for standard charts. You will be also able to format already existing charts and tailor them in accordance with your needs.
I highly recommend to take a close look at the introductory videos on which type of chart to use for a given circumstance. Only if you know which chart type is suitable for a dataset will you be able to make full use of the many options Excel has to offer.

It was a good match and taught me great info on charting in excel. However, Lesson 13 and Lesson 26 would not load for me to complete. I hope this doesn't hinder me from getting credit showing course completion.

So much great information in this course, I only wish I could memorize it all! It was a great experience to work with the charts and get a visual of what all they do and can be used for. Might end up going over this again in the future to retain a bit more.

Yes, this course works for me, as I am a beginner and know nothing about creating charts & graphs. I also learned multiple types of charts and how best to use them. I am still not comfortable in the creation but I will learn. Thank you!

This is a big advantage if we know how to differentiate a past performance using chart and graph.

excellent course
By Norman E. Holt on 11/8/2020
It's perhaps unfair of me because I am a little more advanced than this course but I did not want to start without a good basis so I am bored. Also, our instructor's accent took a little getting used to but, it is obvious that he has worked very hard to annunciate clearly.

VERY INTERESTING MATERIAL BEING PRESENTED
By Richard Foltz on 8/20/2020
It was what I was looking for. I did have some issues with the data format at times (European?), the audio failed at one point, and the course data that I downloaded was a useless Notepad text.

Yes, I pick up pointers on how do charts.
