Faced with the complexity of managing massive amounts of digital data, it’s no surprise that organizations are rethinking how to empower their teams. Garth Gehlbach, Head of Data Governance at Western Governors University, joins us live at Data Citizens ‘24 in Orlando to reveal how the university implemented a self-service data discovery platform, transforming the way users access and leverage information.
By leveraging a "Google for data" approach, WGU has built a system that allows users to quickly find and confidently trust the data they need. And thanks to the power of metadata in providing critical context and making data more accessible and reliable, WGU’s self-service model not only offers a practical blueprint for overcoming fragmented data sources and inconsistent reporting; it also paves the way for a more scalable and efficient data governance model.
