Improve Your Know-How on Practical Data Governance

This is a good course to learn in a structured method with very crisp and clear and simple explanations of terms concepts along with very useful templates.

I recommend it 100% to anyone wants to start their data governance journey. Thank you so much for designing the course so well.

This is a great course for those who are wanting a comprehensive understanding of implementing Data Governance within their organizations! Really enjoyed the course.

The course offers an exceptionally comprehensive dive into Data Governance, which is quite impressive. It covers everything from foundational principles to advanced implementation concepts, all structured in a coherent and logical manner.

The quality of the content is top-notch, crafted with precision and enriched with actionable explanations and insights. I particularly enjoyed every aspect of it, especially as I am currently implementing Data Governance within my organization.

George's teaching style is engaging and approachable. He has a knack for breaking down complex concepts into simpler units, making the learning experience enjoyable and easily understood.

I highly recommend this course to anyone involved in data management, particularly beginners who want to understand Data Governance in the simplest way, as well as experienced professionals looking to implement effective Data Governance practices.

This course provides a very in depth knowledge on data governance and all topics are covered in detail related to data governance.

I am so glad that I found this course from George's videos on Youtube. The content was excellent and the perfect amount of time for each module. It allowed for me to fit it into my busy work and parenting schedule and get done in a timely manner. I like George's teaching style it makes the content easy to take in, understand and adopt. We are just starting our data governance program and I feel this course will help steer us in the right direction and course correct from where we currently are. I will definitely be recommending this course to my other coworkers and anyone else I know on a data governance journey.

Thank you

I was skeptical at first because there isn't a lot of content regarding data governance that is actually truly beneficial for individuals looking for practical knowledge in that relatively controversy field. George is one of those instructors who can deliver content in a way that it is understandable, straight to the point, and yes... PRACTICAL. Templates and all are just great to have and complement the content 100%. Thank you George, can't wait for you to release other relevant course for the data governance professionals looking to expend their knowledge.

This course designed to provide me the knowledge and skills necessary to manage and protect data effectively.
It enables me with the tools and techniques to analyze and interpret data effectively, leading to more informed and strategic business decisions.

A very enlightening, worthwhile, invaluable and enjoyable course on Data Governance. The several templates I now have access to alone is worth the price of this course. George is also an excellent teacher! Thank you.

The course provided great practical examples for implementing a data governance program.

My only feedback is to keep doing what you and your team are already doing.

The resources you provide are very helpful (especially the templates) in implementing data governance in our company. I'm sure other customers who are trying to implement data governance feel the same way.

A must-take and very well-organized course that everyone in Data Governance should take.

This course offered a comprehensive and well-structured curriculum that covered both foundational principles and advanced practices, making it highly relevant for professionals managing enterprise data. I particularly enjoyed the modules Pre-Implementation Steps and Develop Metrics & KPIs, as they provided practical frameworks /templates that I could immediately apply to our governance program. The teaching style was clear, engaging, and paced well for online learning, with a good balance of theory and case studies. I would recommend this course to others because it not only builds essential knowledge but also empowers you to drive real improvements in your organization’s data governance maturity.

I found this course is highly productive for the following reasons: less theory, more practical activities are more action-oriented develop the clarity; Understand your role and place; The answer is given for more clarification. Improvement: every program can be improved further. For example, add a case study end to end for the implementation. Discuss any industry for DG standard. Overall great course. Kamran

Excellent! I have acquired a lot of new information and ideas.

During this course I have gained much knowledge about Data Governance and I as a part of team member for project this was very useful and documents provided was really helpful. Overall I am happy!

Great practical information! The templates really make a difference.

We have started implementing the Data Governance Programme within a local bank and this course has helped tremendously in gaining knowledge to move this programme forward and growing it in the right direction.

I like the straight to the point practical talk from experience. Would be great if one can increase the speed of the video.

Great content and a best course to get a clear understanding of the Data Governance program. The lessons and modules are clearly segregated and curated. George's explanation to these chapters are much clear to get a detailed view.

I actually learned more practical, clear to apply concepts, hands-on tools than when I read the DAMA DMBOK2. This course is an accelerator on actualizing the benefits of having Data Governance in the organization. In my first two weeks in my new role as a Data Management Executive, I've used the course's basic concepts, metrics & KPIs, and tools deployment & selection lessons in shaping our roadmap towards becoming an insight-driven organization. Because of this, our top management now fully supports our key data initiatives e.g. Single Source of Truth, DM Fundamentals ( Enterprise Business Glossary and Data Catalog, Data Quality Management).

At first, I wasn’t sure that an online course would guide me well enough to produce tangible results in my first dip into Data Governance, but George really knows his stuff! The video tutorials and downloadable templates are concise, useful, and easy to grasp. Please keep producing such great content to help us data professionals! Thank you!

I was basically thrown into a position where my team was given the task of helping our client at the VA to stand up data governance at the enterprise level. You can read as many books as you want, pass as many certification exams, etc, but that by no means makes you an expert. Having someone break down things that could work, things that have caused failure, and learning points put a good spin on the information.

The course was easy to understand, and the templates were very useful.

I am new to Data Governance. I have watched numerous videos on the subject but this course fits my learning style perfectly. I like the fact that each video length is not too long. I particularly like the fact that I have access to templates which I can use. This course gives me the confidence to seek a Data Governance role. I have already recommended the course to a friend who wanted to learn about Data Governance.

I love the practicality of this course. The knowledge, tools and tips shared came in handy in my data governance role. The short videos and engaging delivery made it easy to progress through the course while juggling other responsibilities. Also, the layout of content allowed me to easily jump into specific topics when I needed insight on those. I would certainly recommend the course to newcomers to data governance who have to hit the ground running.

Thank you for a great comprehensive foundation to the field of Data Governance, it was just what I needed to give me the foundational knowledge to build on.

I think this course gave a great foundation for Data Governance. Speaking from someone who albeit a programmer had no experience in the field of Data Governance.

Great course to build a foundation and lot of reference documents to leverage in the development of your own custom program.

I found this course very helpful. I'm also preparing for the the DAMA-DMBOK exam and this course will help me to understand better the concepts. Firstly, the course is a very good combination of video guides and text, it's more easy to assimilate the information. The various templates are also super helpful if you don't know exactly how and where to start.
One suggestion - for the quality scorecard maybe an RCA(Root cause analysis) template would be helpful.
Thank you George!

This course covers everything you need to know in order to get started and set up your data governance program. The courses were detailed enough, and I found the total length of this course to be just right. I took notes on every video and now have my own written handbook/quick reference guide.

George delivers high quality material, information, and explanations. I loved the explanation of the operating model, doing the ad-hoc assessment, and how all of that ties in to building your strategy, TOR, and scope documents. He also helped make Principles, Policies, and Standards practical and tangible for me.

I've already used some learnings to guide my customers on best practices, and can be more prescriptive in my guidance. I also have this course to point them to in order to learn more.

I would recommend this course to anyone who is familiar with the theory, but needs to get the ball rolling and wants to know where to actually start, and what specifically to do.

This is a highly engaging course with a lot of practical takeaways. The templates alone are worth the investment, but the lessons, examples, and advice that George provides are invaluable.

In my pursuit of becoming a better data governance professional I've taken other courses, but this is by far the best data governance course out there.

This course on data governance is highly practical. Although I have many years of experience as a data governance analyst, I didn’t find it highly relatable but still see it as a valuable reference for my daily tasks. Thank you, George, for putting this course together. I especially appreciate the concise, video-based delivery style. Thank you!

This course was great to get an understanding of data governance as my organization starts to implement its own program. The length is good and the examples provided helped reinforce the concepts. Thanks!

This has been the most insightful Data Governance course I have taken till date. Having worked in Data Governance for a while, I love that I could relate with a lot of the examples and some of the steps outlined are what I could have used in my role for better outcomes. I will recommend this course to every Data Governance enthusiast or professional looking for some improvements or best practices in their Data Governance implementation.

This course has provided me with an excellent basis of data governance understanding and start, to implement a data governance program within my own company using the tools provided. The videos were actively engaging and the course/video length was a perfect length to understand the topics presented without losing interest by being too long. The course breadth was extensive and feel I have a holistic view of data governance as a topic. The examples/templates were particularly great, and I'll be using them to help build our own data governance program. I'd recommend this course to anyone wanting the complete data governance picture and a practical start to implementing their own data governance program. Thank you George!

Simply excellent.

Very good course. I very much appreciated the short segments - helped to make the concepts easier to understand.

To be honest, I have watched a lot of videos on YouTube and read many articles, but still was still feeling something is missing. I have learned plenty things from this awesome course, since the stuff being taught is extremely useful for people who have heard and at least have high level understanding about Data Governance Program/Project.

George's material is logical, straight forward and accessible to everyone, whether you're just beginning your data governance (DG) journey, or you're a seasoned DG professional. The materials included in the course are just the right length, generally 5 to 10 minute video lessons, very good production quality and cover the right breadth of information. It's a great program and provides value at a reasonable cost, so I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about DG, as well as the basics of how to implement their DG program.

Very good course, right to the point at nice pace with very helpful additional content, like the templates. I found particularly useful the lessons on change, people and communication management as they tend to be overlooked. Good focus on the importance of business side engagement, as many data-related projects are seen usually as IT-only driven, or delivering outcome/feedback unidirectionally from IT to business. I am currently implementing a data governance program for the company I work for as part of a wider data strategy, involving cloud migration and development of a modern data stack, while facing a lot of issues due to poor company engagement in data-related activities. So the course is helping me to set up the path for a more data-driven culture and operations ecosystem that could boost momentum and income to the company, while educating decision makers on the importance of it.

This is the first course I found on Data Governance that I really understood and could imagine myself implementing it while viewing the videos. Other courses only give you disorganized information that you don't know how to use, but this one is certainly a must have. Thanks George!

This course is wonderful for those who want to understand the concepts and terminologies of Data Governance and the practical steps and best practices.

I have watched many of the LOD videos on Youtube. I feel that this course was great on the level of implementation.
In some cases, it did feel as though we were just receiving a number of bullet points as opposed to fully fleshed-out concepts, but this might be my view only because I am completely new to this field.

Very detailed course and helpful templates!

I loved this course, because it is different than the theoretical courses that assume all would go okay according to the plan. George did a wonderful work explaining what can go wrong and why in every step, with the reasons and actions to take. I wish there were a few use cases or examples of datasets showing how the assessment or implementation can be done, but overall I am very satisfied and would recommend it to everyone. In addition to being a data governance training, this program also covers project management and change management.

Super Awesome! I recommend it to anyone.

In life, the old saying goes "if its too good to be true, its not", but in the case of this course, it's all good and its all true. Thank you for having the ambition to make such a course and thank you for sharing with others.

Great course! Fits in well and expands my consulting background in IT Security & Audit, Data Privacy and now Data Governance.

Very helpful and hands on oriented

This was a great course. Brings the practicality of data governance into reality.

I would rate the course a 5 out of 5. The course sets the right tone with Data Governance being a business program and focuses on the content and questions that need to be answered when standing up a Data Governance Program. I like the way the course helps with change management and technology but doesn't put any shiny objects at the center of the discussion. Well done! Highly recommend this course to data analytics pros who need a structured approach to set up a DG Program.

This was a great Data Governance course! Incredible content and well-delivered. The templates are so beneficial and incredible tools! Thank you!
