IBM Cognos Transformer: Design OLAP Models (v10.2)

Duration: 4 Days Course Code: B5282G

Overview:

IBM Cognos Education is now pleased to offer you our courses in an exciting new learning format, Instructor-led Online (ILO). Students areoffered a similar experience to live classroom training, with the convenience of having it delivered directly to their desktop. IBM Cognos Transformer: Design OLAP Models (V10.2) is a four-day, instructor-led online course that provides developers with knowledge ofOLAP modeling concepts using Transformer. Participants will learn how to design, build, and maintain PowerCubes for use in IBM Cognos BIso that end users can easily analyze data.

Target Audience:

This intermediate course is intended for Developers who design OLAP models for use in IBM Cognos BI.

Objectives:

Please refer to course overview.

Prerequisites:

This offering is intended for Developers who understand thebusiness need for ad hoc queries and analysis, and haveexperience gathering requirements and analyzing data. It is alsorecommended that students take the IBM Cognos Report Studio:Author Professional Reports Fundamentals (V10.2) course.
