Course Description:
This course explores data management and its enabling technologies as key components for improving
mission effectiveness through the development of open, enterprise-wide, and state-of-the-art data architectures. It examines management issues such as the implementation of the data component of the Enterprise Architecture specified by OMB. In addition, the course considers key data management strategies,
including the DOD Net-Centric Data Strategy, and the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Data
Reference Model and their enabling information technologies including data warehousing, electronic
archiving, data mining, neural networks, and other knowledge discovery methodologies. Case studies
allow students to explore data management issues and implementation. While geared for managers, the
course provides sufficient insight into the underlying technologies to ensure that students can evaluate
the capabilities and limitations of data management options and strategies.
Recommended Attendance:
The course is designed for mid- to senior-level managers in both technical and non-technical functions who seek a greater understanding of data management strategies and the state-of-the-art and trends in data technologies.
Prerequisites
None; however, students in the Enterprise Architecture Certificate program are encouraged to complete
the Information Management Planning (IMP) and Strategies for Process Improvement (PRI) courses before enrolling in DMS.
Learning Outcomes
Students will be able to assess an organization’s current data architecture and implementation and to develop
strategies to enhance them to improve agency mission effectiveness. |
