Presenting Excel™ Data in PowerPoint™


It's fair to say that Excel and PowerPoint are two of the most loved and most loathed applications in the modern business world - loved by those who know how to use them effectively, and detested by those who have to interpret poorly-presented data squashed onto a single PowerPoint slide. Whether it's internal company presentations, sales presentations or showing current project trends to senior stakeholders, the majority of presenters have little understanding of how to effectively display and link Excel files to PowerPoint presentations.

In this interactive 2-hour live e-learning course, you'll learn how to select the right data presentation format for your PowerPoint presentation, create compelling Excel tables and charts to display the data, link those to PowerPoint, and use PowerPoint's presentation capabilities to keep your audience focused on what you want them to know, rather than taking their own messages from the slides, or drifting off entirely.
