Six new chart types.

One click forecasting
In Excel 2016, the FORECAST function has been extended to allow forecasting based on Exponential Smoothing (such as, FORECAST.ETS() …).

3D Maps
Our popular 3D geospatial visualization tool, Power Map, has been renamed and is now available to all Excel 2016 customers and is built into Excel.

PivotTable enhancements
Here are some of the enhancements we made in Excel 2016, so that you can focus less on managing your data and more on uncovering the insights that matter.
Automatic relationship detection discovers and creates relationships among the tables.
Creating, editing and deleting custom measures can now be done directly from the PivotTable fields list

Multi-select slicer
Now you can select multiple items in an Excel slicer on a touch device.

Once you’re finished preparing your data analysis, you can share it with your workgroup or clients through Power BI with just one button. Once published to Power BI, use your data models to quickly construct interactive reports and dashboards.

Quick Shape Formatting
This feature increases the number of default shape styles by introducing new� styles in Excel.

Insert pictures with the correct orientation
With automatic image rotation, once you insert an image into Excel, it automatically rotates the picture to match the camera’s orientation. .

Insights into what you're working on
The Insights pane, powered by Bing, offers more than just definitions. When you select a word or phrase, right-click it, and choose Smart Lookup, the insights pane will open with definitions,

Ink Equations
Including math equations has gotten much easier. Now, you can go to Insert > Equation > Ink Equation, any time you want to include a complex math equation in your workbook. If you have a touch device, you can use your finger or a touch stylus to write math equations by hand, and Excel will convert it to text.

Simpler sharing
Choose Share on the ribbon to share your spreadsheet with others on SharePoint, OneDrive, or OneDrive for Business.

Improved version history
Now you can go to File > History to see a complete list of changes that have been made to your workbook and access earlier versions.

Data Loss Protection (DLP) is a high-value enterprise feature that is well loved in Outlook. We are introducing DLP in Excel to enable real time scan of content based on a set of predefined policies for the most common sensitive data types (e.g., credit card number, social security number).

New functions
Courses will covthe use of new functions such as:

TEXTJOIN
This function combines text from multiple ranges, and each item is separated by a delimiter that you specify. Learn more about TEXTJOIN here.
 
CONCAT
This new function is like CONCATENATE, but better. First of all: it's shorter and easier to type. But it also supports range references in addition to cell references. L
 
IFS
Tired of typing complicated, nested IF functions? The IFS function is the solution. With this function, conditions are tested in the order that you specify. If passed, the result is returned. You can also specify an else "catch all" if none of the conditions are met.

SWITCH
This function evaluates an expression against a list of values in order, and returns the first matching result. If no results match, the "else" is returned.
 
MAXIFS
This function returns the largest number in a range, that meets a single or multiple criteria.

This function is similar to MAXIFS, but it returns the smallest number in a range, that meets a single or multiple criteria.
