Excel Power Query Training Course Overview

Our Excel Power Query training course is ideal for you if you have to spend time every month cleaning and transforming data before you can even begin to analyse it and incorporate it into your reports. 

We show you how to import data from many different sources and then combine, transform and reshape your data as required for your Pivot Tables and other Excel reports. You set up your query once and then reuse it with a simple refresh. Power Query is built into Excel.
