1 Analyzing Data with SQL Server Reporting Services Duration: 5 Days Course Code: M10990 Version: C Overview: This five-day instructor-led course teaches students how to implement a SQL Server 2016 Reporting Services solution for data analysis in an organization. The course discusses how to use the Reporting Services development tools to create and manage reports and implement self-service BI solutions. Target Audience: The primary audience for this course is database professionals who need to fulfil a BI developer role to create Primary responsibilities will include implementing reports and mobile The secondary audiences for this course are power information workers. Objectives: After completing this course, students will be able to: Describe reporting services and it s components Describe reporting services data sources Implement paginated reports Work with reporting services data Visualize data with reporting services Aggregate report data Share reporting services reports Administer reporting services Expand and integrate reporting services Describe mobile reports Develop mobile Prerequisites: 20761A/B: Querying Data with Transact-SQL
