The new heighten interest in Information Governance, having the proper information stewardship and control functions in place, has elevated the awareness of organizations of having the appropriate Information Resource Management in place. The business environment demands an Information Management function with a focus on accountability and participation of business and information technology personnel alike. This participation must transcend the boundaries of applications, project scopes, and departments; organizations need an effective approach to facilitate this enterprise process.

Data Certification provides the processes, controls, roles, methods, tools and techniques required to accomplish these goals.

This tutorial provides the attendees with a full description of the Data Certification approach and how it helps your organization increase information management. Attendees will learn and practice valuable methods and techniques to enhance their effectiveness in Information Management; the tutorial includes exercises and examples of the associated tools and techniques for managing information across the enterprise.
