    Data is everything and powers everything we do in our day to day lives. Data is everywhere and anything can be turned into data. With technology advancing as fast as we have seen during the last 10 to 20 years, the importance of data should be catching the attention of everybody, and this is why it is important to have an understanding of data quality and data usability. Data governance ensures that data is usable, accessible and protected. Effective data governance leads to better data analytics, which in turn leads to better decision making and improved operations support. Data Stewardship is an important aspect of data governance.

    The Data Stewardship Crash Course is the opening door into the world of Data Governance and Data Stewardship. The course covers the main foundational principles of both Data Governance and Data Stewardship and guide you through key definitions, key guidelines, key objectives, simple framework, and recommendations for Data Governance implementation in the organization.

    - Have gained a clear understanding about Data Stewardship and its role in Data Governance, as well as its key goals.

Description

Welcome to the Data Stewardship crash course series. This course is the first of several series and we are going to cover the key aspects of data governance and data stewardship, starting with definitions and moving on to a Data Governance Program Office framework/setup.

When working with data, there are numerous challenges that need to be overcome, including the fact that Data does not explain itself and someone is needed to ensure that data is not just explained, but maintained. Someone must interpret the data, including what it means, how to use it correctly, and how to determine whether the data is of good quality or not.

Data is shared and used by many people for a variety of purposes. So, finding ownership and accountability for the data can be a challenge, in particular when the data is inaccurate.

This course will give you the needed knowledge regarding data, its importance, and how to manage it.

To ensure the best learning experience, each lesson is accompanied by a quiz to help ensure that the most important topics are really understood and learned.

This course series is open to students within all levels of knowledge of Data Governance, from total beginner to advanced. This particular course series is more of an introduction to the topic, but we believe that even for an advanced data practitioner, the course brings value. The subsequent series will touch more advanced topics which may be of more interest for advanced level data practitioners, but taking all the series will ensure no gaps in knowledge.

Who this course is for:

  • Data leading roles like CDO’s and CIO’s
  • Data Stewards, Data Owners, Data Managers, Data Experts, Data Analysts
  • Data Modelers, Data Architects
  • Content Managers
  • IT Representatives, Database Administrators
  • Business Subject Matter Experts
  • Anyone interested in having a better understanding of Data Governance
