Excel Essentials Event

​NEO Initiative × Bearcat Analytics Society

​Most people use maybe 10% of what Excel can actually do. This workshop is about the other 90%.

​This hands-on session will cover the Excel tools that matter most for business analysis and project work: efficient shortcuts, conditional formatting, lookup functions, text functions, pivot tables, and how to identify the KPIs that actually tell you something. Everything will be practiced on a realistic business dataset, so you're applying each skill in context instead of just watching a demo.

​By the end, you'll be able to organize messy data, pull out real insights, and actually communicate what you found — skills that carry over into internships, projects, and just about any job that touches a spreadsheet.

​Open to all students, no Excel background needed.
