Its always heartening to meet a fresh group of people from different sectors and backgrounds that all have a common interest in learning more and developing themselves and, by result, their organisations.

The role of data stewards is crucial for data spaces to succeed in Switzerland. This course is key.

This has been a most enriching experience! I have gained relevant knowledge, skills, and tools on the third wave of open data. The people and classmates that you will encounter is top-notch which could greatly enhance your network and community.

I highly recommend participating in this course to anyone who is leading a team. It opens your eyes that working on AI or Data is not enough - you also need the structures and governance to do so. Data Stewards play a crucial role in this.

The Data Stewards Intensive Course was a great opportunity to learn more on this very interesting but complicated topic. Building on the Canvas, the course was a mix of theoretical, practical and hands-on learning. A diverse pool of experts shared their expertise with us and we benefited from diverse views on how this role is implemented in practice.

This course was an incredible opportunity to learn from experienced peers, receive mentorship from academic and industry experts, and set strategy for a post-pandemic world, where public institutions need to set priorities with data and answer questions with data. It has been an honor to be a part of this inaugural cohort of Data Stewards, and I look forward to contribute to our growing community!

The course offered a great opportunity to dive deeper into the role of data stewards and showed their importance. Furthermore, I benefit from the exchange within the group and the experience of the speakers.

Highly recommended course for people working on data science and large scale data led projects that have large scale impacts and complex collaborations.

The course allowed me to improve my knowledge about open data and especially how to connect data needs with resources, as well as to develop a data stewardship strategy to apply in the projects that I manage. It also offered me the opportunity to learn about experiences and real use cases, listening to the people who carry them out in different countries. It was also an opportunity to expand my network of professional contacts with the possibility of exploring future collaborations.
