Course Welcome
Welcome to BI Consulting Groups Introduction to Oracle Essbase class!
BI Consulting Groups comprehensive training program reflects the best practices developed after more than 200 implementations of Oracle BI Enterprise Edition (formerly Siebel Analytics). Our curriculum is designed to not only provide a functional understanding of the variety of Oracle BI and data warehousing tools, it also provides a wealth of advice, tips, and tricks designed to fully take advantage of all aspects of OBIEE before, during and after a project. Our classes operate in an immersion environment, designed to allow the student to become fully engaged in all aspects of the class curriculum through a series of real world exercises. Unlike other training organizations that use trainers who have never actually implemented the software or built a data warehouse, BI Consulting Group taps into our wealth of experienced consultants to act as trainers and mentors. The best practices, tips and tricks developed by our team will allow you to push your data warehouse, Oracle BI Enterprise Edition and Oracle Essbase implementations to the limit.
