It’s late in the day, and you’re staring at a spreadsheet filled with rows of data: sales figures, survey responses, timestamps and categories. You know the insights are there, but where do you begin? Fortunately, there’s a better way to make sense of it all.
Join us for a hands-on, fast-paced webinar to explore PivotTables — one of Excel’s most powerful tools — and learn how to uncover clear, meaningful insights from your data. In this interactive Open Lab, we’ll walk you through the basics of PivotTables with live, step-by-step exercises. With just a few clicks, you’ll learn to summarize, filter and explore your data to answer key questions.
This webinar is open to students and professionals across all disciplines — business, social sciences, engineering, humanities and more. Whether you’re analyzing survey responses, research results or performance metrics, PivotTables offer a flexible way to identify patterns and bring clarity to complex data.
No advanced Excel skills are needed. This Open Lab presented by the Unit for Data Science and Analytics at ASU Library is designed for beginners. Just make sure Excel is installed so you can follow along, or watch and practice later at your own pace. We’ll leave time at the end for Q&A and troubleshooting. Discover how a small pivot can lead to big insights.
