Description: This workshop will focus on techniques that HIM Professionals use to dynamically link clinical and administrative data from Microsoft Excel with presentations created in Microsoft Power Point.  Participants will have the opportunity to integrate data directly from Excel into Power Point and then dynamically update charts and graphs so that both products remain synchronized.  We will also review techniques for embedding Excel worksheets within Power Point presentations and converting Power Point presentations to Adobe’s PDF format.  The workshop will be completed with a demonstration of techniques useful for securing Power Point presentations. No previous knowledge of either Excel or Power Point is required for this workshop, although participants who have some general familiarity with Power Point will find this workshop particularly useful.

Best Practices for Virtual Learning

- Consider having two screens if you wish your learning experience to be interactive. The first will be your computer with Excel up so you can follow along with the presenter. The other can be a tablet or second computer where you can pull up the Webex session and watch what the speaker is demonstrating.

- Note that the session will be recorded; registered attendees can return to the recording for reference for up to 6 months after the live event.

- Data will be provided prior to the live session. They should be downloaded and opened in Excel prior to the start of the webinar.
