Seminar Description

How is your organization going to get started with Data Governance? Are you restarting a failed program or working to sustain an on-going program? What are the necessary steps to develop governance in your organization? How do you get and maintain executive buy-in? What about the relationship of Data Governance to Metadata Management, Data Quality, and MDM? What sort of framework should you be using? How does governance drive value? Where does Data Literacy fit in? If you and your executive management are asking these questions and so many others about Data Governance, then this four-day live online seminar is for you.

Instructor John Ladley discusses the many steps necessary to plan, design, start building, and maintain your Data Governance program from the ground up. You’ll learn about the fundamentals of Data Management and Data Governance, and how they work together to help you accomplish the overall goals of your Data Governance program. Throughout the live training, John will further define objectives to identify critical success factors and help you avoid typical roadblocks and pitfalls, whether you're starting new, restarting a program, or working to sustain it into the future.
