The opening course in the Excel Skills for Data Analysis and Visualization Specialization, this intermediate program treats Excel not as a spreadsheet tool but as a genuine data-analysis platform. It has drawn 231,986 learners who want to work with data quickly and accurately without necessarily learning a programming language first.
The curriculum covers the practical backbone of data work: wrangling, cleansing, transformation, and preprocessing, alongside the Excel formulas and functions that make manipulating large datasets manageable. It is built for people who need reliable, repeatable analysis workflows, not one-off manual cleanup.
