BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE & DATA WAREHOUSING S P E C I A L I Z E D S T U D I E S P R O G R A M • O N L I N E

Companies that build data warehouses and use business intelligence for decision-making ultimately save money and increase profit. In addition, initiatives ranging from supply chain integration to compliance with government-mandated reporting requirements (such as Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA) depend on well-designed data warehouse architecture. This specialized studies program introduces you to the main components of a data warehouse for business intelligence applications. Learn how a data warehouse fits into the overall strategy of a complex enterprise, how to develop data models useful for business intelligence, and how to combine data from disparate sources into a single database that comprises the core of your data warehouse. Explore how to define and specify useful management reports from warehouse data.
