Excel will remain key for basic data analysis

[kumartk]

Our courses keep up with the times. Just like the next edition of the Advanced Excel course , which is constantly evolving and improving to reflect new trends and technologies in data analysis,

We asked Jan Kudělka, a data analyst, lecturer, and Excel expert, what changes have been made in previous courses and what participants can expect. Jan also shared his thoughts on how to overcome your fear of Excel and take your skills to the next level.

The fourth course is coming up. What has changed since you and Laba prepared the first ever stream of the Advanced Excel course?
I believe that the course has been improved, both in terms of content and technical aspects (for example, a new system). I took a course on Sports Marketing at Lab , so I saw the online course "from the other side" and gained inspiration for my own course.

Excel itself has also moved a little bit and in my personal life I have a second honduras phone number data child, so there is a little less free time. (laughs)

As a data and analytics professional, have you noticed any significant changes to Excel recently?
It depends on what version of Excel you have and what platform you're talking about, whether it's Windows, Mac, or web. It's best to have Microsoft 365, where new updates are available (then it depends on the license).

There are usually two types of changes. Smaller ones, which are more numerous. Recently, for example, there have been Checkboxes, some new functions and working with them. Regular expressions are being prepared, for example, you can find them in Google Sheets for some time now.

And then there are the bigger changes. For example, the integration of tools (Copilot, Python) that have a real impact on the use of the program in various ways, directly into Excel.

If we imagine a regular Excel user, what will it bring to them if they move their skills to an advanced level?
They will certainly be more efficient at work and better able to decide which procedure to use. This can then go hand in hand with better quality of work and perhaps even better career opportunities.
