Course Description

IBM Cognos BI is a web-based report development tool designed to create anything from simple list reports to complex multi-page dashboards across multiple databases.
Create any report your organization requires from visualizations to EDI feeds to third parties, all with one tool.
Using the IBM Cognos BI Developer Trial Edition, you'll learn best practices for navigating Report Studio, the types of reports available, adding data, creating fixed filters, creating prompts (dynamic filters), and formatting. Next, you'll learn advanced topics such as prompt pages, variables, joints/unions, dashboards, drill-through reports, and active reports. Then we'll discuss securing our reporting environment through Cognos Administration, securing reports/directories/data, and the use of macros. Finally, we'll cover tips and tricks such as JavaScript and dynamic page breaking.
By the end of this course, users will be able to take the practical examples used in the videos and apply them to their own environment. Learning Cognos is like learning a foreign language, so continual immersion is needed. Practice a few times a week to become familiar with the interface, your data, your organization's requirements, and your reporting style.

The way Mr. Aaron Solar has delivered these sessions, are really organized / great / superb.
I want him to deliver more sessions on latest 'Cognos Analytics 11' tools and technologies as well. I will definitely take those sessions too. Thanks Mr. Aaron for conducting such excellent sessions...

I loved how Aaron hit all the major points in Cognos Report Studio. It certainly got me up to speed on the process. The first 3 sections were too fast to catch up to since I was taking notes along the way. Course content was excellent!

sometime video is blur

Content was not detailed. It was only a overview

Very fast paced and touches the surface level only.

By Myrical Barton on 5/12/2020

The course is clear, but also at a good pace! :)

By N on 4/21/2020

Very fast quick analysis, while some of the examples were good it was not very in depth.

By Jessica Locke on 4/10/2020

Exactly what I was looking for!

Horrible

By Shubham on 4/9/2020

The software(Cognos report studio) which the tutor is using, is now not available. The newer version is completely different(Cognos Analytics 11.1). It causes lot of problem understanding here and practicing there.
