Data Visualisation
2nd March 2021
Online
It’s one thing to know how to build a report or dashboard in Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, etc., but it’s another to know which chart types to use under different circumstances, how to make it look good and most importantly, how to make it easy for people to consume the information.
- Why choose a line chart over a bar chart?
- What is a bullet chart and when to use it?
- What colours should you use and where and why?
These and other important questions are addressed during this technology independent one-day course.
Dimensional Modelling
16-17 March 2021
Online
Excellence in dimensional modelling remains the keystone of a well-designed data warehouse/business intelligence system, regardless of your architecture.
The word “Kimball” is synonymous with dimensional modelling. The Data Warehouse Toolkit (Kimball/Ross, 2013) established an extensive portfolio of dimensional techniques and vocabulary, including conformed dimensions, slowly changing dimensions, junk dimensions, mini-dimensions, bridge tables, periodic and accumulating snapshot fact tables, and the list goes on.
Attendees of this two-day course will learn the tried and tested Kimball techniques for designing robust dimensional models to support enterprise decision making. Students will gain an in-depth understanding of dimensional modelling that they can apply directly to their workplace projects.
