Every Picture Tells a Story is a popular saying that is true not only in everyday life but in Excel too. Behind every set of numerical data is a story waiting to be told. The telling of this story needs to be succinct, easy to understand, and engaging. For most people, it’s much easier to understand data, uncover important insights, and make better decisions if that data is displayed in a visual way. Drab-to-Fab. Engaging. Attention-grabbing…you can create a basic chart in Excel with a couple of mouse clicks or even a single key press, but the result is very plain and not at all engaging.
This training will teach you how to make your charts more visually appealing so that they grab people’s attention. Infographics are a popular way of presenting data. After participating in this course, you’ll be able to convert a bland chart into an awesome infographic with just a few mouse clicks!
