Discussion questions
Three objectives provide the foundation for this project:
The Public Service Commission, a partner in the project, will also showcase its new pilot recruitment program for data scientists and its rich toolbox of resources to support data talent recruitment and hiring.
Our mandate is to transmit the knowledge and value of data to transform the people and culture around data and data literacy. Critical inquiry and reflection on issues and challenges faced by the community provide opportunity for collective intelligence building and collaborative approaches to problem-solving, which can create new ways of thinking and doing. In turn, members can bring back knowledge and ideas to their networks and advance discussions further.
