Last week, eLearningCurve instructor Maria Villar outlined the major elements of a data governance program. In this episode of The Learning Curve, her partner, Theresa Kushner, introduces you to how others have already started this journey. In the case study portion of this training, you are introduced to elements of a program dedicated to governing customer data.
