While there's generally something to be said for crafting things by hand, spreadsheets and data analysis don't exactly fall into that category. Fortunately, Excel is commonplace in computers across the world; so much so, that scientists have renamed certain genes so they can keep using it to crunch data.

Mastering Excel can open new doors in your career, whether you want to perform better at the job you have now, or want to add high-end data analysis to your repertoire. The Premium 2021 Microsoft Excel & Data Certification Bundle has 24 courses on Excel for just $69.99, 97% off their usual retail price, and will show you just how powerful Excel can be.
