BI is all about empowerment of end-users. Accessing information at a time that suits you, in a format that you want to work with is important. Unfortunately, many BI solutions don’t offer this freedom to end-users. This half day course is aimed at people that need to interact with information on a regular basis and often cannot wait for long development cycles before they can get their hands on the right data to make informed decisions. The course will focus on using BI tool number 1 in the world, Excel 2010, including the free add-in PowerPivot. PowerPivot for Excel 2010 is a data analysis tool that delivers unmatched computational power directly within the application users already know and love—Microsoft Excel.

After this hands-on, half day course attendees will be able to immediately apply the PowerPivot functionality in their own environment, enabling them to transform large quantities of data with incredible speed into meaningful information to get the right answers in seconds.
