Self Service Analytics: Tools and Techniques
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through KPI definition and scenario modelling on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with dashboard design, forecasting techniques and data quality management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of dashboard design rather than escalating it, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Bring forecasting techniques into line with current good practice
- Make a decision about data quality management without waiting for a specialist
- Review data cleaning and preparation and say plainly whether it is working
