This confidential self-assessment is designed to motivate discussion on the degree to which data is currently being leveraged in your community and to instigate action on areas for improvement. It includes: - An overview of how your community is performing in four key areas of data maturity with a results printout. - An action plan to help you measure your objectives. - A robust resource library to help design and implement your improvement strategies.
