What's New in Boise State Business Intelligence?

We are excited to announce that the Boise State Reporting page is currently under development. The BIRS team has collaborated with our web development team to craft a user-friendly, web-based platform that offers a range of exciting features. These features include integration with the Data Cookbook, comprehensive organization and search capabilities, as well as a dedicated space for announcements and outage notifications.

The primary objective of this project is to introduce a modern replacement for our existing Boise State Reporting dashboard, designed to enhance user experience and accessibility.

While we are still in the development phase, please be aware that the content on the page has not yet been fully populated. What you currently see is placeholder content intended solely for illustrative purposes. Nevertheless, we are eager to offer you a sneak peek into the forthcoming design and functionality of the new Boise State Reporting page.

Oracle Reporting Training Opportunities

BIRS hosted a three part training for OAC and Data Visualizer. The recordings are available by selecting the BI Tools Training on the BIRS Resources and FAQ page.

We will be conducting monthly drop-in training sessions throughout the fall semester, designed to help you become proficient in OAC and Data Visualizer. Our team members will be available for 2 hours once a month, providing you with the opportunity to seek assistance, ask questions, and resolve any issues you may encounter while working with these tools.

The sessions will be conducted in an open house style, giving you the flexibility to join at your convenience; you are not obligated to attend the entire two hours if your schedule doesn’t permit.

Here are the upcoming scheduled training dates:

  • October 4, 2023, from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM

  • November 1, 2023, from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM

To reserve your spot in a session, send an email to birs@boisestate.edu and we will add you to the list.

If your team would like more individualized training, please email birs@boisestate.edu.
