Fundamentals of Data Governance Strategies

It would not be wrong to say that data is one of the most valuable assets for any organization that seeks to succeed. Whether it is the timesheet for employees’ attendance or the details of a business deal, organizations cannot deny the significance of data stored in their physical and digital vaults. However, not all of this data remains consistently useful, and it becomes essential to eliminate it. Moreover, as new information is stored in organizational repositories, managing old data can become time-consuming and exhausting.

However, by teaching organizations how to manage their existing and new data, an environment can be created to preserve the integrity and security of the data. Through this course, students will learn how data governance can help them with this, its benefits for organizations, and the important roles and elements required to create a data governance framework. Similarly, the course also covers the basic aspects of training organizational personnel in establishing and sustaining a data governance framework.

The most important aspect of this course is its focus on the challenges associated with establishing this framework. Two complete topics have been dedicated to this purpose. They also contain practical tips to deal with these challenges. The course is written in very simple language, with most of the content presented in readable chunks and bullet points. In short, this course would be a valuable asset for data science professionals, regardless of their level of proficiency in this field.
