Whether you need to crunch numbers for sales, inventory, information technology, human resources, or other organizational purposes and departments, the ability to get the right information to the right people at the right time can create a powerful competitive advantage. After all, the world runs on data more than ever before and that's a trend not likely to change, or even slow down, any time soon. But with so much data available and being created on a nearly constant basis, the ability to make sense of that data becomes more critical and challenging with every passing day. You already know how to get Microsoft® Office Excel® to perform simple calculations and how to modify your workbooks and worksheets to make them easier to read, interpret, and present to others. But, Excel is capable of doing so much more. To gain a truly competitive edge, you need to be able to extract actionable organizational intelligence from your raw data. In other words, when you have questions about your data, you need to know how to get Excel to provide the answers for you. And that's exactly what this course aims to help you do.

This material will benefit users of any current Office version. The classroom environment setup is based on Office 2021.

This course builds upon the foundational knowledge presented in the Microsoft® Office Excel® 2021-2024: Part 1 course and will help start you down the road to creating advanced workbooks and worksheets that can help deepen your understanding of organizational intelligence.

Communicating ideas and information is the cornerstone of organizational operations. And, electronic forms of communication have made the transfer of knowledge quick, easy, and inexpensive. The ability to harness the potential of electronic forms of communication is critical in nearly every type of organization. But, in many, if not most, organizations, people work with a wide variety of devices running on a wide variety of platforms. And sometimes, what works well or looks good on one device, won't work at all on another device. Or, your carefully designed and formatted document may end up looking like a jumbled mess on someone else's computer. So, how do you balance the need to communicate ideas to large groups of people with the enormous diversity found in today's electronic devices? The answer: you don't have to because Adobe® created the Portable Document Format (PDF) as a solution to incompatible document formats.

Adobe® Acrobat® Pro puts the power of the Portable Document Format, literally, at your fingertips. By taking advantage of the functionality and features available in Acrobat's new-experience interface, you will ensure the integrity of your electronic documents regardless of who views them, on what devices, or with what operating systems. And that will give you the confidence and peace of mind that comes with knowing that what you meant to communicate is what your document recipients will see.

Welcome to PMP® Certification: Passing the 2021 Exam. This course provides the basic knowledge needed to learn the concepts and skills necessary to pass the 2021 Project Management Professional (PMP) exam administered by the Project Management Institute (PMI). It is intended to be used alongside the PMBOK® Guide, Sixth Edition, which is useful as an ancillary reference and glossary.

The new release of this course (R2.0) includes a new chapter on agile approaches to, and tools for, the project life cycle. These methods address projects that require an adaptive project environment, iterative activities, and changing requirements. The standard example of adaptive project needs is that of software development and revision; however, agile methods are used today in many different project environments, from architecture to medical equipment and services. The new chapter (Managing projects with agility) was inserted at the end of the book. There were no other changes to the rest of the content, including the Exam Prep add-on.

This course assumes that you have project management and other educational experience, as required by PMI, in order to take the exam. In addition, it’s expected either that you have already applied to take the exam, or that you plan to do so while taking this course or shortly thereafter; this course contains instructions for doing so.

Organizations typically store their most critical information—the information used to manage day-to-day operations—within a database. The ability to retrieve and analyze this information is essential to the functioning of the organization. Structured Query Language (SQL) is the primary language used to accomplish such tasks. Essentially, SQL is the language you use to interact with a database.

The ability to write SQL is an essential job skill for those who need to manage large volumes of data, produce reports, mine data, or combine data from multiple sources. Even if someone else on your team creates reports for you, having a fundamental understanding of SQL querying will help you ask the right questions and know what you're looking for in your data analysis tools.

This course, SQL Querying: Fundamentals (Third Edition), will teach you to use SQL as a tool to retrieve the information you need from databases.
