As counties prepare for the transformative impacts of artificial intelligence, and evolving compliance demands, robust data governance strategies have become essential. This webinar will explore actionable techniques to modernize data frameworks to align with county priorities, improve asset inventories, refine retention policies, and foster data-aware cultures.

Topics will include aligning data and information governance, leveraging AI tools to enhance data quality, conducting governance audits, and implementing lifecycle management practices to reduce risks and improve efficiency. 

Key takeaways/discussion points:

  • Align governance strategies with broader county program goals and operational priorities
  • Build effective data asset inventories for improved compliance and efficiency
