    Hi Sarah,

    Are you completing the course in the virtual environment? If so, using the path C:\Board\Dataset\Hierarchies and Data already has the files pre-loaded into the folder, and there is no need to download them anywhere.

    Hi Crystal,

    Is it possible to download all 8 .csv files please? For some unknown reason, the data readers in my Board Training Environment aren't working anymore. I ran into an error when using the "Level 2 Demo" DB, so I recreate a new DB called "New" and started to use that instead. However, I'm really confused as to why the data readers in the Training Env refuse to load any data to entities or cubes.

    I have a local instance of Board on my machine and I would prefer to complete the Level 200 training on my machine please. Can you help me out?

    Hi Shivanand,

    I am trying to find out from the Academy team if those files are available to distribute for participants that cannot complete it on the virtual machine. Is there something wrong with the virtual machine that interferes with you being able to use it, or is it just a matter of preference for you?

    Hi Crystal,

    So the issue I had encountered was, I created a backup procedure to store backups of the DB as I progressed through the training. However, when I tried to restore the DB, the "Level 2 Demo" DB was no longer accessible. I created a new DB called "New" and tried to continue with the training but for some reason, the data readers to load the entities weren't working. Therefore, I was hoping that I could've completed the Level 200 training on my personal machine if those files were accessible to me.
