IBM Planning Analytics v2.1.x: Design and Develop Models in PAW

Course overview

This course teaches learners to analyze and report data using IBM Planning Analytics Workspace. Participants build models, views, dashboards, and reports through hands-on exercises aligned to v2.1.x.

This course teaches modelers how to design and build a complete model using IBM Planning Analytics Workspace. Learners progress through the full modeling lifecycle, starting with an overview of Planning Analytics architecture and continuing through dimension design, cube construction, data loading, and business rule development. The course emphasizes modeling best practices and performance considerations using Planning Analytics version 2.1.x.

Through a combination of instructor-led explanations and hands-on exercises, learners create and enhance a working model that reflects common planning and analysis scenarios.
