Web-based training
This offering teaches IBM Cognos Framework Manager data modelers how to model for predictable results. Participants will learn how to identify query and reporting issues, model virtual star schemas, and work with query subjects and relationships. They will learn how to consolidate metadata, use filters and calculations, and work with time dimensions.
Note: Guided eLearning is a self-paced offering which includes web-based content for self-study and videos (including audio) that demonstrate activities.
