Hi,

Honestly, you'd be much better learning Cognos Analytics (Cognos 11) than Cognos 10.2.2. The UI is completely different, and 10.2.2 will drop out of support in April 2018, so it has a limited lifespan.

There is a free trial of Cognos Analytics in the cloud - I'd be tempted to use this

Cheers!

Thanks,
