As you may know, the folks at ESE have been working on substantial improvements to both the front-end (user interface) and back-end (report processing speed) of the Education Data Warehouse. The new and old systems will run in parallel starting mid-August. For staff who need a refresher on the current system and/or would like to learn more about the new system, there will be several Data Warehouse Refresher workshops offered in August.
These no-cost workshops are intended for staff who have had previous Data Warehouse training (or have explored it independently) but need additional support in the use of this tool. The workshop will provide a structured environment in which to explore data using the pre-defined reports in the Data Warehouse, including the new Growth Model and reports. Information will be shared about summer 2011 improvements and changes to the Data Warehouse interface and functionality. Participants will access their own district or school’s data, get time-saving tips and will have an opportunity to run and save reports for use in the planning for the 2011-2012 school year.
