Business Intelligence - more than just data, it's a team!

Do you find yourself looking at the same spreadsheet every month wondering if the data is being used by anyone else?

Are you spending hours manually creating reports with no time to really dig into what the data means?

The Business Intelligence Team would like to offer their services to any department on campus. 

The team will work with you to accomplish the following key objectives:

  • Develop a more automated approach to data collection
  • Highlight key department objectives and how to measure each one
  • Display your data in meaningful visualizations
  • Train you to edit and share your data dashboards with your intended audience

To contact this team, please send an email to: oitdata@uccs.edu

Zoom over to WebEx

Zoom on over to WebEx - UCCS' preferred and supported Video-Conferencing platform.

WebEx is free and available to UCCS Faculty, Staff, and Students. Like Zoom, WebEx features the ability to view 25 participants on one screen, supports phone call-ins, and screen sharing. Unlike Zoom, WebEx offers more attendees, is supported by campus OIT and recordings are stored in the cloud. 

WebEx vs Zoom

More information about WebEx and easy to follow steps can be found online. Questions should be directed to the Help Desk.
