Overview: Many of us struggle to make sense of all the data that is available in this information age. With such a deluge of reports and statistics which don't mean anything or can't be made sense of, it's no wonder that data is often misinterpreted or not communicated at all. This course will help you understand how to "tame" your data and make it work for you! Learn how to synthesise information into a logical framework, summarise it into a meaningful format, and then display the summary into easy-to-read tables and graphs. Covering dashboard reporting, balanced scorecards, visual design of charts and tables, we will also discuss the new charting and analysis features of Excel 2007.
