Ph.D.

Corporations large and small continue to struggle with data quality, which isn’t easily learned with theoretical watch-and-learn instruction. In this course, you’ll learn data quality techniques at a computer loaded with data and state-of-the-art data assessment/data cleansing software.

With limited lecture we’ll set the stage, covering the basics of modern data quality techniques from an academic perspective but with real-world bias. We will immediately put those techniques into action. Using live data, you will write basic business rules, apply those rules, and create a data quality scorecard.

You Will Learn:

• Modern data quality assessment techniques
• How to create business-based data quality rules
• How to make the case for and manage a data quality initiative
• How to implement and manage programmatic, business-based data quality rules

Geared To:

• Data analysts and managers “in the trenches” of a current data quality initiative
