Data Governance for Non-Specialists

Data and Business Intelligence|2 days|Classroom or live online

Data Governance for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through data cleaning and preparation and spreadsheet controls without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with scenario modelling, pivot table analysis and SQL querying in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Review scenario modelling and say plainly whether it is working, measured against established visualisation principles
Put pivot table analysis on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
Take ownership of SQL querying rather than escalating it
Explain KPI definition to someone who does not do the work
