Forecasting Techniques Reporting and Analytics
3 days|Delivered on request
Forecasting Techniques Reporting and Analytics focuses on the measurement layer: what to count, what it means and how to present it. Delegates work through DAX and calculated measures and statistical fundamentals and the reporting built on top of them. The reporting layer matters because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning. Delegates leave able to work confidently with storytelling with data, report automation and visual encoding choices in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where storytelling with data is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
- Review report automation and say plainly whether it is working
