As a county leader, you likely know that data is increasingly
central to the way public agencies evaluate new investments and
make high-stakes trade-offs. You may also know that you can learn
to improve your understanding of data analytics in several ways.
You can use trial and error. You can seek out experienced
colleagues. Or you can expand and accelerate your abilities
through professional development.
That’s where our partners at NACo and Professional Development
Academy (PDA) come in: They’ve developed an 8-week online
program—Leading in Analytics—to help
executives, senior managers, and other data-driven professionals
to navigate the emerging pressures surrounding data science and
data analytics.
The program is notably interactive: Instructors use peer-group
discussion and dedicated mentorship to drive engagement and
maximize learning outcomes. Participants come away with a working
knowledge of why organizations should utilize data science, how
leaders can create data analytics teams and conversations, and
what to focus on amidst constant data-related changes.

Afeman, our partner at PDA, to enroll or get more information.
The next program begins October 23rd.
