<h1>Want to take your career to the next level?</h1>
<h1>Practical, Hands-on Training for Advanced Excel Formulas & Functions</h1>
Microsoft Excel is perhaps the most important computer software program used in business today. That's why so many workers and prospective employees are required to learn Excel to enter or remain in the workplace. Unfortunately many college students, recent grads, and professionals haven’t mastered Excel or have the adequate Excel skills employers are seeking. According to Payscale, “ 80 percent of job openings require spreadsheet and word-processing software skills. Yet so many people never even give Excel a chance because it has an intimidating stigma around it.”
If you walk through the finance or accounting department at any major corporate office, you will see computer screens filled with Excel spreadsheets outlining financial results, budgets, forecasts, and plans used to make big business decisions. Marketing and Product profesionals using Excel to list customer and sales targets; managing thier sales force and planning future marketing plans based on past results. Pivot tables to quickly and easily summarize customer and sales data by category with a quick drag-and drop. HR professionals using giant spreadsheets full of employee data and understand exactly where the costs are coming from and how to best plan and control them for the future. Supply logistic professional to manage inventory and forecasts demand.
In essence, you can turn an entire department around just because you know how to manipulate data in order to get an aggregate view.
<h1>STRUCTURE OF COURSE</h1>
Advanced functions and formulas
* Logical functions
* Conditional functions
* Financial functions
* Text functions
* Date functions
* Array formulas
Lookups and data tables
* Using lookup functions
* Using MATCH and INDEX
* Creating data tables

* Rearranging PivotTables
* Formatting PivotTables
* PivotCharts
Exporting and Importing Data
* Exporting and importing text files
* Getting external data
Analytical Tools
* Goal Seek
* Scenarios
Macros and Visual Basic
* Running and recording a macro
* Working with VBA code
<h1>BENEFITS</h1>
Not only are many business professionals using Excel to perform everyday functional tasks in the workplace, an increasing number of employers rely on Excel for decision support.The ability to analyze data is a powerful skill that helps you make better decisions. Microsoft Excel is one of the top tools for data analysis and the built-in pivot tables are arguably the most popular analytic tool.
<h1>MAKE YOUR RESUME STAND OUT</h1>
They are NOT seeing if you simply have Excel as a skill. They are diving deeping when it comes to determining which candidate to interview and hire. They look for Pivot Table, VLOOKUP, Macros, VBA, Conditional Formatting, Charting and Filtering…These are far more telling of your ability to an employer then writing Excel. Someone who writes VLOOKUP, Pivot Table, Filtering demonstrates an ability to analyse data and so has eliminated a potential barrier in the mind of the hiring manager reviewing your resume. In essence, use actual Excel functions in your Resume!
<h1>INCREASE YOUR EARNING POTENTIAL</h1>
Did you know that Excel know-how can instantly increase your job prospects as well as your starting salary? Excel is a transferrable skill that any hiring manager understands is critical.
Research shows job applicants who know MS Excel make $22.66 per hour on average compared to the $20.14 per hour their peers make who don’t know the program. That’s roughly an extra $20 per eight-hour workday and $100 per work week, simply for knowing how to use a single computer program. Moreover, full-time employees in certain industries can see a starting salary bump of anywhere from $1,000 to $7,000 per year based on their Excel skills. That’s not chump change you can ignore.
<h1>INSPIRING ENTREPRENEUR?</h1>
A majority 63 percent of twenty-somethings want to start their own business. How will you stay organized, track data, or forecast your finances if you’re not spreadsheet-savvy?
Many millennials simply want their first job. But, what about your performance once someone hires you? The biggest complaint employers have about millennials is that they lack basic hard and soft skills.These skills include things like teamwork and problem solving, but also basic administrative skills like MS Word and Powerpoint. Once you’re hired, you want to meet the basic requirements of your role without stressing.
<h1>ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR</h1>
Martin Jetton has 30+ years of advanced supply chain analytics, predictive analytics, and statistical consulting experience. He's currently a Principal at the Liberty Advisor Group, where he works in advanced supply chain analytics. In his previous role, he was the Senior Predictive Consultant at Corios; where he developed predictive models and scorecards, forecast trends, identify uncertainties, and assign the ideal strategies to maximize performance.

Building and Integrating Microservices using Ballerina, Istio, and Metaparticle
Speaker: Kasun Indrasiri of WSO2.com
When realizing cloud-native architecture, the integration of the microservices is becoming really challenging. In this talk we will discuss some of the cutting-edge technologies that are designed for integrating microservices, independently deploying the services along with CICD and make them resilient using a service mesh.
We will cover a stack of tools to address this problem, including Ballerina (a cloud-native programming language), Metaparticle, and the Istio Service Mesh, and demonstrate how all these work together. Along the way we will discuss the problems of integration in more depth, show you some of the Ballerina language, and share some integration patterns.
a Docker/Kubernetes extensions.
This meetup is hosted by Cloudability, and sponsored by WSO2.com. |

<p>Please join us for the next PDX Engineering Managers Meetup! We'll be meeting to discuss the craft of software and operations management, shipping software, and building great teams!</p> <p>This meeting will have two parts:</p> <p>1) Informal meet and greet (food and beverages provided by New Relic)</p> <p>2) A talk by New Relic's Rachel Etnire! Title: "The Need to Belong: The Neuroscience of Inclusion".</p> <p>Description:<br>What happens to our brains when we’re rejected in social situations or made to feel less than? Surprisingly, the neuroscience behind these reactions is similar to that of our early ancestors - but their survival was at stake. Most of the threats that our brains now face involve inclusion ( or lack of) in our workplace. In this talk I will address diversity and inclusion, with a focus on inclusivity and the neuroscience behind it.</p> <p>We look forward to seeing you there!</p> <p>Location Details:</p> <p>New Relic</p> <p>111 SW 5th Ave,</p> <p>27th Floor</p> <p>Portland, OR 97204</p> |

С чего начинать ремонт в квартире
Roll back
| description |
Очевидно, практически все согласятся с таким, что ремонт квартиры – это теперь крайне хлопотная и дорогостоящая задумка, какая почти всегда отнимет много сил и своего времени. Только на самом деле абсолютно все никак не так страшно, и многочисленные ремонтные работы можно произвести довольно стремительно и без неимоверных денежных издержек. В нашем сайте можно выяснить о таком, каким образом возможно своими руками осуществить самые разные отделочные и обслуживающие мероприятия по дому, и вы непременно удостоверитесь в подобном, что все это поистине не так уж сложно и затратно, как сможет показаться со сторонки.

Очевидно, практически все согласятся с таким, что ремонт квартиры – это теперь крайне хлопотная и дорогостоящая задумка, какая почти всегда отнимет много сил и своего времени. Только на самом деле абсолютно все никак не так страшно, и многочисленные ремонтные работы можно произвести довольно стремительно и без неимоверных денежных издержек. В нашем сайте можно выяснить о таком, каким образом возможно своими руками осуществить самые разные отделочные и обслуживающие мероприятия по дому, и вы непременно удостоверитесь в подобном, что все это поистине не так уж сложно и затратно, как сможет показаться со сторонки.

***Registration through Eventbrite [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pdx-women-in-tech-pdxwit-how-to-transition-into-product-tickets-49222565017] is required to gain entry to this event ***
Very few product managers started out thinking “I want to be a product manager when I grow up.” Much more commonly they come from other disciplines, such as engineering, marketing, or customer support.
In this session, we’ll discuss how we got into product management, the successful paths we’ve seen for others and how we’ve coached others seeking to make this transition. We will also discuss some common pitfalls to avoid when moving from another discipline.
Agenda:
5:00 p.m. - Doors open
5:30 p.m. - Introduction, with a few words about Skyward
5:40 p.m. - Talk: How to Transition into Product
Mariah Scott, President, Skyward (a Verizon Company)
Susannah Axelrod, VP Product Management, Skyward (a Verizon Company)
Additional speakers TBA
Q&A:
7:00 p.m. - Networking
7:30 p.m. - Event ends
Event FAQ:
Q: Will there be gender neutral restrooms?
A: Yes.
Q: Is the space ADA accessible?
A: Yes.
Q: Will there be food and drink at this event?
A: Yes.
Q: What is the parking situation?
A: Mercy Corps has a small parking lot located on the Northside of the building that is free after 5:00 p.m., if spots are available. There is also plenty of street parking available and nearby paid parking lots (the least expensive all day parking is located at the Smart Park lot— 33 NW Davis Street).
Q: Is there any special information that might help me find the entrance?
A: The event will be held a few blocks from the Skyward offices at Mercy Corps, 45 SW Ankeny Street, Portland, OR 97204. Participants will enter through the main doors on Ankeny between SW Naito and 1st.
Q: Is there secured bike parking?
A: No, there will not be secured bike parking at the event location.
Q: Should I consider using public transportation?
A: Public transportation is always a great alternative. The event is near the Skidmore Max stop.
Q: Can I bring my dog?
A: No, we ask that you leave your furry friend home.
Purpose:
PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women.
Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our purpose are welcome. |

In this series, we will discuss how we can build meaningful places where digital and physical experiences complement each other, examine design processes and methodologies, and examine the nature of design teams that create these experiences.
Join us on Thursday, August 23 as we kick off this series. Gregg Sloan, Founder and Chief Creative Officer and Janani Vasudev, Director of Experience Design at Amplified will introduce the series with a talk about what placemaking is, as well as discuss their work in the area. The 45-minute talk will be followed by a Q&A, with plenty of time in the beginning and at the end to network. Complimentary refreshments will be provided.
This event has a seating limit of 30 people. Please don’t forget to RSVP to save a spot! |

PDX Women in Tech (PDXWIT) September Happy Hour
Roll back
| description |
***Registration through Eventbrite [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pdx-women-in-tech-pdxwit-september-happy-hour-tickets-49177317681] is required to gain entry to this event ***
Join us for Happy Hour at Schrodinger on September 18th.
We talk a lot about the importance of technical skills at every level of the technology industry, but our soft skills can be just as important, if not more! This month we are focusing on how we can nurture and leverage our soft-skills and natural strengths at work. To facilitate this discussion we’ve set the conversation starter to “how can you create space for folks transitioning into tech.”
While the event is primarily intended for networking, we will have a short segment at 5:30 to share important announcements and showcase three women in our community.
An employee of Schrodinger will provide an introduction to the company and share open job opportunities.
Shauna Levy, of Shauna Levy Strengths + Leadership LLC, will tell us how understanding our natural strengths (the things we do without thinking) can be applied to improve our performance and satisfaction at work.
Caroline Clyburn, licensed massage therapist, will talk about self-care, and how it relates to health, happiness, and performance!
During the event, we’ll have more to do than free-form networking:
An Activity Table where people can get creative. This is a fantastic way to meet others if large groups are not your thing. If you have trouble finding it, look for Meg Aul, our Event Activities Director.
Table Topics to help break the ice.
A section for job seekers and our sponsors who are hiring, to ensure people get connected.
Agenda:
4:30 p.m. - Doors open/Networking
5:30 p.m. - Introductions, Announcements + Lightning Speakers
6:30 p.m. - Event ends
