    Course Overview

    Description

    This course focuses on the data engineering lifecycle. This includes following data through its many stages:

    • Generation of data in a source system
    • Vendor-owned push of data from the source system to the Ed-Fi API
    • Extract and load of Ed-Fi API and non Ed-Fi data sources into a data lake (storage layer)
    • Transformation of raw data into facts and dims using dimensional modeling (star schema) as a design process for analytics
    • Creation of data products from the analytics layer
    • DataOps and the cloud as a way to focus more on data and less on infrastructure

    Who Should Enroll

    • FTE data folks in an education organization Students who are enrolled in the Analytics Engineering Fundamentals Pathway
    • College students or LEA team members non-K12 data people who desire to develop Analytics Engineering K12-specific engineering expertise

    Course Outcome

    By the end of this course, Academy students will be able to: 

    • This introductory course provides essential context to begin a hands-on learning journey using Analytics Engineering tools and Ed-Fi technologyApply the lifecycle in their own work to be able to visualize how data moves from source system to data product.

    Learning Objectives
