Are you struggling to govern your data? This course helps two groups:

Before you roll out or fix a data governance program, you've got to understand the main concepts with practical examples. We will show you 6 Easy Steps to Win at Data Governance so you can quickly and easily establish a data governance function that works for your business.
Do you suffer from three or more of these issues?

- You can't get funding to fix data issues properly
- No-one believes the data in reports and dashboards
- You don't know which data issues to tackle first
- You don't have business oversight over data
