Training Overview
Adopting a Proactive Approach that Enables Modernisation and User-Centric Initiatives
80% of organisations seeking to scale digital business will fail because they do not take a modern approach to data governance.
Data Governance is increasingly recognised as a critical building block for efficient data flow and data quality. As a result it is seen as a driver and enabler of data-driven innovation and continues to be the #1 priority and investment area for CDAOs.
As data volumes multiply, data sharing and integration grow and organisation structure becomes more complex, data governance becomes even more challenging. Data professionals in the public sector are becoming increasingly aware that there is no ‘one-size fits-all’ approach to data governance. While most public sector organisations are faced with similar challenges, every organisation needs to carefully customise their data governance model.
PSN’s Advancing Data Governance in Public Sector course has been developed to help public sector agencies bring their policies and frameworks up to speed for 2024 and beyond. Based on a tried and tested formula it will provide data governance specialists who are further along in maturity with key insights.
