Session 1) A Data Warehouse and Reporting from BANNER,
All in One
Wednesday, May 28, 2008, 9:40-10:20 am
Linda Perez,
Director of Institutional Research, University of the
Incarnate Word
Abstract:
The
University of the Incarnate Word needed a data warehouse but
the problem remained how to build the reports and with which
reporting software. Currently, data warehouses on the market
do not have a reporting tool. Reporting tools are usually
sold separately and programmers have to take time to build
them for users.
This presentation will cover:
- the advantages the university saw in a data
warehouse vis a vis other reporting solutions
- the decision-making process (build versus buy)
- the decision to work with ZogoTech
- the deployment process
- progress so far
- lessons learned / best practices
Utilizing this solution has helped to provide accurate
and accessible reports that provide users information in a
timely fashion. There will be a demonstration of
cohort-based retention analyses focusing on stop-outs and
course completion by division, among others.
