About the Webinar
Whether you call it data munging, data cleansing, or data wrangling, everyone agrees that data preparation activities account for 80% of analysts’ time, leaving only 20% for analysis. Shifting this work to more specialized talent represents a major source of data analysis productivity improvements. This program “walks” through the major preparation categories including collection, evaluation, evolution, access design, and storage requirements. Understanding each in context also provides opportunities to develop complementary Data Governance/ethics frameworks. A generalized approach is presented.
Learning objectives:
- Appreciate the savings that can accrue from transforming data preparation from one-off to an improvable process
- Recognize what data preparation knowledge/skills your organization has and/or needs
- Better know the transformations that data can survive as it is prepared to be analyzed
