Data Governance & Quality

Manage data as a strategic asset. Implement data lineage, catalogs, and automated quality frameworks to ensure trust and compliance.

Bad data leads to bad decisions. This course focuses on the 'managerial' side of data engineering: Governance. You will learn to implement Data Catalogs to make data discoverable, track Data Lineage to understand dependencies, and enforce Data Quality using automated testing frameworks like Great Expectations. We cover Master Data Management (MDM), compliance (GDPR/CCPA) in engineering, and how to build a culture of data stewardship within an organization.
