Description Course Outline
 

The term Business Intelligence is not well understood in the industry and is used inconsistently by many IT and business professionals alike. Although the term was defined in the mid 1990’s, the meaning of Business Intelligence continues to evolve as practitioners learn more about its capabilities and challenges.

This online training course introduces a “holistic” view of Business Intelligence and presents it as a complex system composed of many sub-systems that must be aligned and work together to produce the desired business results. The real success of BI within an organization can only be achieved if a holistic understanding is developed that shapes how the various components are designed and implemented.

Course review October 18, 2011
Reviewer: Sean Keesler from United States  
Well, that was like eating my vegetables when I wanted to eat a steak. It was good for me but I didn't know it until the end. I expected something different, but the course sets the stage for more detailed material that I am sure is to follow. It really got me thinking about the 40,000 foot view of how BI needs to be considered where I work. I was likely going to make the #1 mistake of focusing in on the technology skills and capabilities before making the business case properly. This course helped me reframe my approach.

The course is well structured, but I would also like to hear more practical examples, how BI systems work in companies. Some examples.

Excellent course June 6, 2011
Reviewer: Haifa Kealy from United States  
Quite honestly, I thought the beginning of the course was boring but as I continued with the class, I did learn a lot about what BI is and is not. The latter half of the class and the end of the class really brought things together for me.

Reviewer: Richard Farrington from United Kingdom  
Well structured and presented - Great course thank you. The only thing i would like to see is some form of self-assessment capability in the same format as your exams to ensure that we have fully understood the modules and are fully prepared for the associated exam.
