EdInsight Cube Training Available, Dec. 11

EdInsight Cube training is limited to participants who have already been trained on EdInsight "canned reports."

It is helpful but not required to have some background in data analysis, including experience with Excel Pivot Tables or SPSS.

Location: Heartland AEA, Johnston REC, Computer lab
