i considered cognos courses 2 1/2 years ago,, Ended up doing ORacle Financials in India.

Wrong choice.

I did go through the Kimball/Ross Data Warehousing Toolkit book.
Very interesting.



Mercury6,

Can u recommend any good book on COGNOS & do they conduct training on this in India ??

Why is it that Ora Fin jobs are so less as compared 2 Sap FICO ? Seems Ora Apps is having little market share - is this presumption correct ?

I am not sure if there is a book just on COGNOS tools. Short of going through their courses I dont think you would understand just by reading the books. The baisc concepts are wonderfully explained in the above book I mentioned. There are other more advanced books in that series. If you can go through these books seriously you will learn a lot.

This is the guy who wrote those books:
http://www.rkimball.com/

And the books:
http://www.rkimball.com/html/books.html

Sure there are people who will conduct courses.
The problem is timing , fees and enough enrollment.

Cognos in Canada only does corporate training (they can only bill to corporate entities).


I am not sure about Oracle Financials.
I am even more out of touch now.

Hi Ritu,

I recently met a gentleman (my next door neighbour in fact) who did his training with Siemens last year in FICO - He told me that the course was for 31 days (14 hrs per day) and they took and cleared their certification exam the following day !!! Both were Indian CAs .

Talking to him it appeared that FICO was more suited 2 a Finance professional rather than technical guys . Lots of reports and charts based on functional knowledge .I think SAP Admin / ABAP 4 shd be prospective areas for techies .

Will update any other info I receive & request u 2 do the same (in SAP any other newly found knowledge in other areas )

Manasvi.

Manasvi,
One thing I will like to add here is that the things which typically gets bangalore'd are all the technical work. What is here to stay in USA (or Canada) is the business Analysis work. So if you are getting a chance to move towards the functional side, its not a bad choice..but of course it all depends on your interest. Also in USA BA's typically demand more salary than the techies..and canada closely follows USA..;)
