Level 1 Model Building Course Instructions

Ryan8219

Hi,

 

In completing the Level 1 Model Building certification I noticed, what appear to be inconsistencies or errors in the instructions and I would like to highlight these all here as they caused me issues when sitting the certification test.

 

Hope they are valid issues and a reply to this topic helps students navigate around them!

 

1. Part 7: Importing to Modules

In the activity of Importing into Modules there is a CSV file named Employees.csv and the date formats are not recognised by the importing tool. There didn't seem to be an option to choose from using the Import function. Did anyone else experience this and what was the proposed solution? This causes major problems as it's used to populate a systems module

 

2.  Part 12: Dashboards - creating saved views

Under the section "Activities: Create Saved Views" there are instructions to create a saved view for REP02 module. The dimension "Size" is missing from the saved view "REP02: Chart DB".

Again this caused confusion in sitting the test section later on.

 

3. Part 12: Dashboards - "Add Location and Product Page Selectors to Dashboard"

There is a picture of the "Page Selectors" already added however there is no instructions on the how to add these. Not sure if this is intended to be a trial and error process or a video is missing?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the solution to the Date import, I missed that format option!
