Data Analysis & Power Query

Data Analysis & Power Query

COURSE OVERVIEW

Power Query is a tool used to manipulate data and is commonly used for data analysis and business intelligence. Power Query is available in both Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Power BI.

High-quality analysis relies on well-organized data that is free from errors and that draws data from a single source of truth. Whilst many analysts spend hours of time manipulating data, combining data, and performing
look ups, Power Query allows all of these steps to be automated with simple, repeatable steps.
Power Query is one of the most transformative tools available to any analyst working with data in Excel. Not only will it save analysts hours of time, but it will result in reduced manual errors and a better ability to source data from a single source of truth.
