Technology should not be the prevailing factor when designing a Business Intelligence or Data Warehousing solution.

We here at Alicornio understand the intricacies of Information Analysis which involves in-depth requirements analysis that forms the cornerstone of such initiatives. Our Concepts, Design and Modelling for Extended Data Warehousing Course is therefore technology agnostic and teaches sound principles which can be applied no matter what technology is used. Providing a broad perspective of the entire Business Intelligence field.

After completing this comprehensive 5 day course you will be armed with sufficient knowledge to guide you through the process of designing Business Intelligence/Data Warehousing/Analytical solutions.

Concepts such as Data Governance, Data Quality, Requirements Gathering, traditionally structured DW, unstructured data, Data lakes, Big Data, Cloud computing, Project Management Tasks, Roles and responsibilities and much more will be clarified to enable you to talk the talk and walk the walk.

Why is a comprehensive understanding of Business Intelligence important?

It enhances a professional's ability to:

work with data
