Event Description
Data literacy programs frequently focus on the latter part of the data lifecycle – e.g., data analysis, visualization, and interpretation. However, a more expansive view of data literacy – from data creation to data destruction/archiving – is needed to be data literate in modern organizations. Experts require a depth of knowledge in selected areas to perform their job duties well. Alternatively, today’s employees generally need a breadth of knowledge about data processes at critical junctures (along the data lifecycle) to do their jobs more efficiently. Empowering data users/consumers to understand better, for example, how to submit solid data requests, explore data via self-service platforms, read reports/visualizations, and better understand the infrastructure and applications that power today’s institution increases data literacy across the board and fulfills a key component of data governance. In this workshop, we’ll explore how a data governance lens streamlines data conversations between units, why a data literacy program functions best within a data governance program, and how attendees might consider creating a data literacy program with a data governance lens.
