Custom workshops are for the trainees who have already been working and have experience in their field. In response both to the economic downturn and rapid advances in BI technologies, businesses around the world have begun retooling their curricula, moving beyond spreadsheets to embrace process-oriented, holistic BI and EPM. As margins tighten, businesses must more carefully assess their costs and profit drivers, understand their markets and customers, and be able to make quick, informed decisions both as markets contract and in preparation for the inevitable rebound. Whatever their area of expertise, be it finance, HR, marketing, or logistics, - they will find themselves far more competitive in the marketplace if they increase their understanding of BI tools and processes.

This includes data collection, data cleansing and alignment, data processing, analytics, planning and reporting. Today's technology has changed the game. Industry is already embracing these new technologies, and now professionals must train themselves to succeed in this new reality.
