Data work is often thrust upon teams of people who already have a day job. Data teams are thrown together and data leaders have to overcome various data divides. This session will explore the evidence-based data literacy continuum that bridges these data divides. Data leaders will leave with a framework they can use to foster confidence and growth to empower their data teams.

Learning outcomes

• Understand the evidence-based data literacy continuum utilizing Bloom’s taxonomy 
• Recognize where people are on the continuum
• How to empower and support others in progressing along the continuum
