About BICG University About BICG University
BICG University offers customers a fast-paced, implementation-
focused education. Our ability to bring this unique value to the
marketplace is rooted in three key differentiators:
Experienced Faculty
BICG University faculty possesses a depth and breadth of knowledge that is
unmatched amongst other BI training organizations. Each faculty member has
extensive experience in OBIEE deployments and data warehouse construction
which spans many business sectors. This means that students have access to
real-world examples and implementation insights, rather than a pre-produced
training program delivered by instructors who lack practical OBIEE experience.
Each instructor has a minimum of 3 years of OBIEE experience and 5 years of BI
and Data Warehouse experience.
Relevant Curriculum
BICG University courses have been designed after more than 280
2011 Capgemini, BICG University
BICG University courses have been designed after more than 280
implementations of OBIEE across many different industries. These experiences
have been integrated into a real-world curriculum that emphasizes key
deployment success factors and best practices. Hands-on student participation is
central to each course, giving students the opportunity to practice their new skills
in the classroom environment. Most importantly, students return to the workplace
with the tools, insights, and energy to stretch their OBIEE deployment to new
limits.
Proven Methodology
The BICG University curriculum is closely tied to BICGs signature project
methodology. Developed over many OBIEE implementations, this iterative
approach to OBIEE deployments relies heavily on customer education throughout
the projects duration. From server architects to end users, BICG University offers
targeted courses focused on optimizing OBIEE competencies before, during and
after the implementation.
