Data Analysis in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Data Analysis in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including statistical fundamentals, DAX and calculated measures and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with visual encoding choices, data governance and data modelling in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring visual encoding choices into line with current good practice, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Make a decision about data governance without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of data modelling rather than escalating it
- Put data warehouse concepts on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
