Introduction


A good Data Governance Policy is critical to the success of your Data Governance initiative.  Get it right and it serves as a strong foundation for all your Data Governance activities. Get it wrong and it will distract your key stakeholders and make everything more challenging.

 

Many people find it hard to write a good Data Governance Policy because they have never seen one before, let alone written one themselves.  I have written many policies for my clients over the years and learnt the hard way what works and what doesn’t.

 

In this short course, I distil the things I have learnt to create a simple approach to enable you to write a good policy that will serve as a springboard for Data Governance success for your organisation.

 

By purchasing this course you will get: 

  • One hour of video content
  • Access to monthly live zoom calls with Nicola to ask your questions about the course content (usually the last Friday of every month).
  • A Data Governance Policy Checklist
  • An example Data Governance Policy
  • Access to a private LinkedIn Group to ask questions and network with others doing the course.
  • Downloadable slides

Optional Data Governance Policy Evaluation


There is also the option to include a Data Governance Policy Evaluation at a discount, if purchased at registration. In a DG Policy Evaluation I assess and annotate your draft policy and follow up with a 30 minute call with you to go through my feedback.



Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this training and whether it is right for you.
