Governm ent entities and com panies are finding it necessary to implem ent Data Governance programs to achieve
strategic managem ent of data and to manage the organization's data architecture and data infrastructure. Data
Governance is being directed at m easuring the Governm ent's performance and im proving the Governm ent’s ability to
deliver effective services to the community.
Governance and Stewardship programs, applied to the information resources of your organization (including Data, Master
Data & Meta-Data), are implem ented to reduce information technology costs and im prove the value you gain from your
data assets. Governance and Stewardship programs focus on improving data quality, reducing data duplication,
formalizing accountability for data, and improving business and IT productivity. An effective program will rapidly improve
the ROI from data architecture, data quality, data warehousing and business intelligence efforts, application integration
efforts, ERP, CRM, content and knowledge m anagem ent, and EAI efforts.
Students of this class will learn how to implement effective Data Governance & Data Stewardship pr ograms and
how to immediately formulate a strategy & plan that will deliver measurable results with minimal investment.
Robert S. Seiner of KIK Consulting & Educational Services, LLC has been im plem enting successful data governance and
data stewardship programs for more than twelve years and has been transferring “how-to” knowledge to Governm ent
entities and companies via consulting, consultative m entoring & education for ten years. A significant amount of the
Seminar relates to Mr. Seiner’s experiences with many notable com panies and governm ent organizations.
Mr. Seiner offers this Seminar for Governm ent entities and com panies on site at their locations and began providing the
course in a public setting in late 2004 due to overwhelming interest. By providing public classes, Mr. Seiner hopes to
reach a broader audience and those companies that are interested in learning about successful stewardship &
governance implem entations but that don’t have the numbers of interested individuals to bring the Seminar on-site.
Space is limited to the first one hundred paid registration. Register today!
