As technology progresses and becomes more interwoven with our businesses and lives, more data is collected about business and personal activities. This era of 'big data' has exploded due to the rise of cloud computing, which provides an abundance of computational power and storage, allowing organizations of all sorts to capture and store data. Leveraging that data effectively can provide timely insights and a competitive advantage. The creation of data-backed visualizations is a key way data scientists, or any professional, can explore, analyze, and report insights and trends from data. Microsoft® Power BI® software is designed for this purpose. Power BI was built to connect to a wide range of data sources, and allows users to quickly create visualizations of connected data to gain insights, show trends, and create reports. Power BI's data connection capabilities and visualization features go far beyond those that can be found in spreadsheets, allowing users to create compelling and interactive worksheets, dashboards, and stories that bring data to life and turn data into thoughtful action.

Microsoft® SharePoint®, in conjunction with the Microsoft 365 suite of productivity and office automation tools, provides tools to create and manage a corporate intranet, facilitate content sharing and collaboration, and enable users to create, access, store, and track documents and data in a central location. By default, SharePoint provides end users with a generous set of permissions, enabling users to create and customize their own sites as site owners, and create and collaborate on team site content. Users who have grown comfortable with these fundamental content-authoring capabilities may want to move on to more advanced features, such as connecting multiple SharePoint sites through a hub, importing list data from external sources, implementing user input validation features, applying conditional formatting, and using Power Apps® to provide custom user interfaces for data collected in SharePoint. This course focuses on issues related to planning and implementing an intranet with multiple communication sites and team sites interconnected through a hub site to provide unified navigation search, and formatting.

To meet the demands of individuals and organizations for flexible, reusable, and easily modified visual content, Adobe Systems has created a cadre of applications that collectively provide a scalable, end-to-end solution for nearly every type of visual design project one can contemplate. Called Creative Cloud® (CC), the collection of applications perform specialized design tasks while interoperating among each other to deliver content. This course focuses on Adobe® Illustrator® CC (2019), the component within CC used to create 'drawn' graphics, while enabling its users to integrate content from other domains (such as photo-oriented graphics and animation, which belong to Adobe® Photoshop® and other applications). With Illustrator's many easily used tools, you will discover that not only can you unlock the same creative impulses you've always had as you've picked up a pencil to sketch out an idea, but also capture those multiple ideas and 'what ifs' during the creative process in ways that you never imagined. And for those of you who are just embarking on building your creative skills, you will be surprised at 'how good' your work will appear, even at the outset of your exploration of the world of graphic design. This course is a great component of your preparation for the Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) Illustrator CC exam and the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) Graphic Design & Illustration Using Adobe Illustrator exam.
