Data Literacy is a popular word these days. Go to any data chat, and you'll see these two words bandied about by many. Some argue about the term itself, and others compare it to data visualisation skills. With so many people talking about it, this session will help to demystify the name itself. Not only will you learn what it is, but what action you can take personally and professionally to grow this movement.
The Value of Data Literacy for any business
- The place it has in data culture
- The history of data tracking
- Fast forward, impact of history on today
- What an organisation can do - the growing concern
- Building a Vision.
The purpose of this talk is to explain what Data Literacy is, and why it's important today. A person will learn what historical decisions and have lead us to this point we're at, and what they can do to help those around them. Whether personally or professionally. By the end of this session, a person will understand what data literacy, and will be empowered to act on it in their own life and career.
