Robert Witkowski, Dean of Student, SetFocus
It is my pleasure to provide a recommendation for Yubaraj Khanal. Graduating from
the SetFocus Master's Program, he excelled in our intense, integrated, in-depth,
full time MS Business Intelligence Training Program. I was impressed by his ability
to work with many technologies during his time with SetFocus. He has gained experience
with the latest Microsoft BI Technologies, including but not limited to: Microsoft
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS),
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting (SSRS), Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.
In addition, he has established competency with defining business requirements,
designing the Business Process Model and developing, deploying, and managing a BI
System. I found his excellent work ethic was demonstrated by his ability to work
in an environment with firm deadlines, very large workloads, and complex specifications.
He delivers projects in a time efficient manner, is flexible with specification
changes and is able to work within teams on assigned projects. I recommend Yubaraj
Khanal as a
solid addition to your Business Intelligence staff. If you would like
more information, I'd be happy to provide it.
Sincerely,
Robert Witkowski

Yubaraj was a valuable member of one of several teams that were assembled
to complete the final project for his Setfocus class. He quietly and competently
completed both his class work and this project. Yubaraj rarely needed assistance.
He demonstrated an ability to resolve challenges quickly and efficiently and worked
well as a member of a team. He and his team scored achieved high marks on the final
project. Through this project and his class work, Yubaraj has demonstrated a high
level of competency with the Microsoft Business Intelligence tools. I know he will
be an excellent addition to any organization. The final project was a complete end
to end business intelligence solution. The teams were provided a flat database file.
They each created a SharePoint site that was used to both collaborate on the project
and to display the results of their project work. The students then created an ETL
process utilizing SQL Server Integration Services. The ETL process stripped out
a minimum of 6 dimension tables and one fact table from the original database file.
A date dimension table was built by hand. The data was cleaned and put into a data
mart that was designed using Microsoft Visio. The teams next built a cube using
SQL Server Analysis Services. The cube contained hand built hierarchies with attribute
relationships and at least one named set. Once the cube was completed the teams
were required to use MDX to report off of that cube, in several formats. Parameterized reports were created
using Excel services, SQL Server Reporting Services, and Performance Point. The
parameterized reports were presented on SharePoint in dashboards, web parts, and
as their constituent files. Shared data sources were configured as was a subscription,
for one of the reports, which delivered the report daily into a folder on the SharePoint
site.
