Data Governance Essentials Training is a one-day course designed for professionals working with data systems who want to develop an understanding of Data Governance, its core principles and its importance within an organisation.

Throughout the course, participants are introduced to fundamental data concepts, the responsibilities of personnel involved in data management and the main purpose of Data Governance. They also explore situations in which governance processes are necessary and how these processes support effective organisational data management.

The programme focuses on planning appropriate policies and procedures for Data Ingestion, Data Quality and Compliance, Data Storage and Data Disposal.
