This Executive Data Management Certificate programme designed by NEOMA Business School and Jedha focuses on the issues of data governance and strategic data management. In the digital age, data management is a key competitive advantage for companies. Even though companies realise how valuable data is, it is still difficult to make the transition to a 100% data-driven organisation. There are several reasons for this:
- A lack of acculturation
- A difficulty in assessing the level of data maturity
- The feasibility of a project or the value that data could bring
Whether for start-ups, scale-ups or large corporations, we teach all of the best practices that exist today to help companies grow using data.
The Executive Data Management Certificate at NEOMA is designed for professionals seeking a data management certification to strengthen their expertise in data governance and strategy. This programme focuses on how to organise, secure, and leverage data to support decision-making and business performance. You will learn how to manage data quality, ensure compliance, and implement effective data frameworks. By combining technical and strategic approaches, this certificate prepares you to lead data-driven initiatives in organisations.
