So you decide to enroll in this course and take it, what's the best way to get a solid grasp of the
materials?
Simply watching videos doesn't convey knowledge.
So this course is designed around you performing the steps along the way with me to assist you in doing
this.
Each person has the workbook attached as a resource for you to download and follow along.
You can use the download from the course introduction all the way through the course, or you can pick
up the workbook specific to each lesson from any individual lesson if you happen to skip around.
Except for one lesson of the exercise, everything in this course builds off of one data set.
These files can be found under the resources dropdown associated with each video.
You'll see them labeled based upon the video names.
And each of these is the workbook that's from the beginning of the video prior to any changes being
made.
Alternatively, for this specific lesson, which is unpublished, as I'm obviously recording it right
now, there's a zip file that contains all of the files for all of the lessons.
Downloading this file will give you access to all of the files with the appropriate file names rather
than the original DOT Excellence Act's.
Once you've downloaded it, navigate to the file within your directories, right, click on it and within
your options, you'll find and extract all command, choose that and follow the prompts.
And it'll give you a folder with all of the files that you need for this course.
The files are organized into two folders for lessons and exercises within the lessons folder.
The files are ordered in conjunction with the course and even includes the PowerPoint presentation later
on.
The exercise folder contains just the starting file for the exercise, along with the solution that
I created for the exercise.
If you get stuck and something in the supporting videos are unclear, you can always compare your efforts
against mine to see what might be different.
If you do follow along with each of the lesson tasks, the exercise should be only a mild challenge
that forces you to apply the concepts on your own.
Once you've done that, hopefully you'll see some ways that you can apply power pivot in your day to
day efforts.
With that, let's go ahead.
Begin the course.
