Session 1: The Need for Data Literacy and L&D's Role
Presenter: Glen Cermak
Data is everywhere. Hopefully you are already using data to help drive your L&D strategy. But what happens when you go to show your value to executives, or show gaps in skills or knowledge to managers? 76% of key business decision makers aren't confident in their ability read, work with, analyze, and argue with data. That's a problem. Companies are realizing the need for data literacy – for all of their employees – and it will fall to L&D professionals to implement a successful program.
In this session we will discuss the urgent need for data literacy that impacts all business functions in all industries. With only 17% of today's workers believing they are data literate, a comprehensive strategy for implementing data literacy is crucial. We will identify the needs within our businesses that would be improved with a better understanding of data – by executives, managers, and front line workers. We will then explore how to develop and implement a data literacy program, how to find resources for such a program, and example success stories.
In this session, you will learn:
-
What data literacy is and why it is critical to your business
-
How having a data literate workforce can improve your business, including within your own L&D team
-
Best practices for your L&D team to develop and implement a company-wide data literacy program
-
Where to find valuable resources to help with growing data literacy within your company.
Session 2: Leveraging Data for Talent Development Success
Presenters: David Solot, Ph.D. & Stephen Mueller, Ph.D.
Description: Building upon the knowledge in the morning session, you will learn how to use data to make sound, data-driven business decisions to help become a valued business leader in any organization. Regardless of what your current level of experience is with collecting and analyzing data, you will learn practical ways you can get started and hear how different organizations have used it successfully.
