EDUCATION

Traditional data governance talks often stay stuck in ideas: what governance should be. This training gets you to what works in the real world. It’s designed for people struggling with inconsistent data, unclear roles, compliance gaps, or stalled governance initiatives, and for anyone who needs to make governance deliver value now.

You'll learn how to:

- Apply frameworks & tools today, not just study them.

- Align your governance with business outcomes - trust, compliance, growth.

- Build roles & responsibilities people will actually follow.

- Techniques to future-proof your approach for AI, big data, and ethical data usage.

This isn’t just learning, it’s action you can take back to your team on day one.

- Trainer (Zoran Novaković, Line of Business Director for Data Governance) actively works in the field every day, so examples aren’t generic but rooted in what clients actually face.

- You won’t leave wondering “now what?” - you'll take home knowledge, frameworks, and models you can use immediately.

- One-day intensity training means you can gain high-impact knowledge without having to disappear for a week.

- Designed to be valuable whether you’re starting or scaling governance.

This training is ideal for professionals across technical and business roles who are responsible for or involved in working with data:

- IT professionals, including data engineers and data architects

- Business analysts and data specialists

- Managers and decision-makers leveraging data for strategic planning

- Compliance and data protection officers

- Anyone involved in data collection, management, analysis, or usage within an organization

This workshop is structured around real decisions and real problems, not abstract theory. Each module is designed to give you something concrete you can apply right away.

1. Make Data Governance Make Sense
Understand what data governance actually does for an organization - how it builds trust in data, speeds up decision-making, and reduces friction between teams.

See how to choose and adapt governance frameworks so they fit your organization’s size, culture, and maturity - without overengineering or slowing things down.

Get practical guidance on using data catalogs, metadata management, and quality monitoring tools - focusing on how they help you govern data, not just what features they have.

5. Prepare for What’s Coming Next
Understand how governance needs to evolve for AI, advanced analytics, and ethical data use - grounded in real-world experience rather than speculation.

6. Know Exactly Where to Start
Learn how to assess your organization’s current governance maturity and identify the most impactful next steps, so you leave with a clear, realistic action plan.
