Enabling Business Intelligence and Reporting Engineers to go beyond the basic mechanics of SQL Server 2012, students will learn how to design, build and deploy Business Intelligence applications in an enterprise-class environment. Upon completion of this intensive, hands-on course, participants will have the knowledge and skills required to sit and pass the exams required to earn the MCSE Business Intelligence qualification and to design world-class BI applications.
Business Intelligence analysts and reporting engineers will gain a complete understanding of using SQL Server 2012 as the foundation for building BI and reporting solutions, backed by a solid appreciation of the technology platform that runs behind the scenes.
Reporting engineers and analysts will be particularly interested in learning to query data directly using T-SQL and extending these techniques to build complete Business Intelligence solutions. They will gain a complete understanding of the database system and how to extract the information they need in the most efficient way.
But more than simply providing access to online materials however, the MCSE SQL Server Business Intelligence course grants access to the Practice-Labs. The Practice-Labs allow delegates to design and test their own Business Intelligence applications and reports using dedicated live equipment. They can also increase their knowledge by recreating the scenarios covered in the course, ensuring they fully understand the concepts being taught.
By completing this course students will not only fully understand the concepts behind Microsoft SQL Server 2012, but also develop the skills needed to build BI applications that deliver the information and insights demanded in a real world environment.
