Target Audience: All Staff

This training session is intended to be an introduction to the SUnBIRD data platform for both new and returning users. Sessions explore various datamarts to navigate SUnBIRD, and cover the three core elements of a SUnBIRD datamart:

  • Dashboards: pre-defined chart reports providing drilling capabilities.
  • Reports: ability to define simple chart and tabular reports.
  • Analysis: ability to define advanced, self-service tabular and chart reports.

These sessions also cover general features such as creating data bookmarks, exporting data to Excel, key data definitions, routine and/or customised reports, and upcoming developments in the SUnBIRD landscape.

Sessions can also cover specific questions you may have prior to or during the training, and the team will be in touch in advance of the session to allow for registrants to submit any individual questions, queries, or requirements that they would like SUnBIRD’s help with.
