Why do I get an error message when I try to access the Data Warehouse Portal from outside of Valencia College?

  • The Data Warehouse is only available while connected to the Valencia College network. When on campus, this can be accomplished by either plugging directly into the network (like the PC in your office or a laptop that is plugged into a network outlet via a network cable) or connecting to the Valencia College Wireless Network (WiFi). Off campus if you establish a VPN (Virtual Private Network) connection you will be able to access the Data Warehouse portal. After establishing the VPN connection simply open a browser and connect to the Data Warehouse portal page.
