Dashboards help HR teams report on the business, inform decisions, keep stakeholders up to date, track problems, present KPIs and other metrics, and manage talent. As with any communication tool, design matters as much as function. This 90-minute Excel KPI dashboard training for HR professionals shows how to build one that is interactive and looks professional.
You'll start with best practice for setting up data sources, then summarize data with PivotTables and formulas and communicate it visually with charts. You'll add interactive filters with slicers, automate the dashboard with a simple macro so it stays current when new data arrives, and use protection to prevent accidental changes.

A well-built dashboard turns HR data into insight without hours of manual updates. This training gives you a solid foundation for building your own dashboards and reports.
