What Your Peers are Saying about TDWI Conferences

The information presented was very practical, not bogged down in arcane academia. I took away several techniques and concepts that were immediately applicable to my work. Excellent program.

An excellent forum to stay abreast of the newest trends and technologies while networking with peers in the field.

The fact that the conference was private-sector concentric was very beneficial. It gave us government types [the opportunity] to hear what the private sector is doing without all the hard sell you usually hear at government-sponsored conferences. The primary focus was education, not marketing. Bottom line, we learned a lot, and for the first time I felt like we got our money's worth. Good job, we'll be back

It validated our direction and gave ideas for incremental improvements for our data warehouse.
B. Tinglestad

I am new to data warehousing, and it gave me an in-depth, focused jump start on understanding my new world.
A. Wilcox
Guidant Corp.
Our future data warehouse deliverables will definitely benefit from the knowledge gained at the conference. Every session I attended had very knowledgeable instructors with real-life experiences. I have learned new techniques to help drive out the requirements needed to build a flexible data warehouse that meets the business needs, as well as advanced modeling tips and techniques for dimensional modeling. Just-in-time training!

The TDWI conference opened a lot of new opportunities for me professionally and personally. The peer networking is invaluable and so is the chance to meet the Gurus. This conference is a must-attend event for every data warehousing person, whether they are in the business or technology areas.

As a new entry to the field, this conference gave me an opportunity to learn from the ‘doers’ in the field. The multi levels of classes allow for everyone from the newbies to professionals to come away with information at both the tactical and the strategic level. Well done!
