TESTIMONIALS
"The course with Hans was excellent. It was very well structured, engaging and I was very happy with the level of knowledge I gained from attending the course. When we were doing exercises, I particularly liked Hans' style of provoking thought by giving you just enough information to point you in the right direction to refine the model. I feel like this helped me grasp and retain the content.
In addition to the above, I really appreciated the invite to attend the 'bonus' ELM workshop after the course. This was also excellent and gave me plenty of ideas as to how to engage with an organisation on a data vault project."

Nick / Digital Transformation Consultant / The Netherlands
"My exposure to Data Vault was limited to a presentation I caught at the PASS Summit 2018. The presentation was an introduction to Data Vault and the modeling form of the ensemble modeling pattern. This was all new to me. The three-day certification session filled in all the missing pieces. The session was very informative and provides an excellent foundation in Data Vault modeling. The course does an excellent job of presenting the material in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to the real-life issues faced in all EDW development. Ensemble modeling is an exciting pattern that promises to increase the agility of data warehouse development and management while simplifying the modeling approach to more closely align with the business. The class provided me with a solid foundation in the ELM process and the tools to go out and begin developing vault solutions to address my current business demands. Hans’s ability to integrate the core principles of vault modeling with real world examples makes the material very easy to ingest. I’ve struggled to build warehouse solutions in the past due to issues collecting business concepts and modeling to align with business requirements. After attending this class I am confident I will now be able to deliver a superior data warehouse solution that aligns with the core business concepts of the business and the business relationships between those concepts."

"I can really recommend this course in Data Vault Modeling. Now I know why I should use data Vault and I know how to use it. The course leader showed very deep knowledge of the subject and was a master of teaching."
Bjorn / Senior Business Specialist / Sweden
"The idea behind the Data Vault and Ensemble Logical Modeling goes much deeper in understanding the data as an organizations' asset. It also creates a bridge that connects certain core concepts: business-driven modeling, agile development focused on delivering reasonable MVP as well as provides a great means when you need to prove your data is governed. Highly recommended!"
Piotr / Data Architect / Poland
"I really enjoyed the course. Hans seemed to have a passion in seeing more good Data Vault modellers coming through the ranks. For me it was great to be taught by someone who has so much knowledge about Data Vault Modelling, pretty much a thought leader in the field who has a great passion in passing on the knowledge.

I felt that the course structure and the pace at which we were going through the course content was just right."

"I thought it was cohesive and to the point, I have no idea what could have been done better."
Olle / Sweden
"As I was a non-experienced user of Data Vault, the course gave me sufficient information to make a good head start for my work as business analist.
The theory was done in a up tempo, though the content effective to participate in the excises.
There was plenty of room the ask questions and discussions about the Data Vault our course leader was enthusiastic and well experienced
to transfer knowledge about the Data Vault.
In 3 days you learn about the component of the Data Vault and principles of modelling working in groups with co students, a great way to practice.
Three days of course is intensive, yet I recommend this course to everybody who works with Data Vault."
Gerard / The Netherlands
"I experienced the CDVDM course as a highly interactive, intensive 3-day course with a steep learning curve.
The instructor is very passionate about the theories and provides helpful practical examples which in return leads to interesting group dialogues.
The modeling assignments I experienced as the most beneficial to directly bring your new knowledge to practice.
This ensemble modeling way of thinking helps you to step out of a technical comfort zone. It opens up opportunities to converse with the business and help them think about their own business processes and priorities. Look forward to attending the advanced course in the future!"
Joerie / Business Intelligence Consultant / The Netherlands
"Data Vault Certification made me gain some truly agile tools to better understand and make tangible the needs of daily changing businesses I work with. Having means to structure and organize the unstructured nature of large data sets and communicate among teams adds real value to what we, as companies, can nowadays provide to final users."
Iraitz / Spain
"Did you feel like the course was applicable to real situations you have encountered?
The course gives a solid foundation for understanding and applying Data Vault. It uses real world examples that make it easy to understand and follow.
Was the teacher effective in communicating the material?
Remco is a good teacher, his explanation was clear and he answered all questions patiently.
Last, would you recommend this course to friends and colleagues?
The course is a must have for everyone that is using or will use Data Vault modeling. I would definitively recommend the course."

"The course was really useful in terms of understanding in what a Data Vault is. Especially, I appreciated the fact that we didn't just go through the theoretical stuff, instead we had plenty of hands-on exercises to go through. After I had completed the course, it was really easy for me to talk about Data Vaults, with my colleagues."
