Excel Basics for Trauma Data Analysis

This practical course teaches trauma hospital staff how to use Excel for routine data review, table building, filtering, and basic analysis. Participants will learn to organize trauma registry exports, format clear tables, sort and filter records, check for missing or unusual values, and summarize findings for data review and survey readiness. Examples focus on common workflows used when reviewing trauma data, but the skills apply to any Excel worksheet. By the end, learners will be able to turn a raw spreadsheet into a clean, reviewable data table and identify records that need follow-up.
