THE
COMPETITION
In 2012 SAP University Alliances will be hosting
an exciting new competition in collaboration with
the 2012 European 2012 Football Championships.
Students can make use of the actual results of the
football championships combined with a free download
of
the Crystal Dashboard design software from the
University Alliances Community.
Students
at universities in Europe, the Middle East and
Africa (EMEA) are invited to participate in this
competition. Each participating team is to develop
a dashboard using SAP Crystal Dashboard Design to
display and analyse the results of the games
throughout the Euro 2012 competition. Each week a
new version of the results from the competition will
be uploaded here for students to download in Excel
format.
Students can then build, week on week through the
competition, their dashboards in Crystal Dashboard
Design.
Each
team's dashboard will be judged on its usefulness,
usability, data quality and presentation, subject to
the terms and conditions below.
