The Latest Updates from IDC
Save the Dates—The 2020 IDC Interactive Institutes Are Coming Soon!
The Interactive Institutes 2020: Building and Sustaining a Culture of High-Quality Part B Data will be held in Fort Worth, TX from March 3-4, 2020 and Nashville, TN from March 31-April 1, 2020.
State teams will immerse themselves in a data quality environment as they dive into topics to learn about data culture change (the mindset and the know-how); discover best practices to improve data collection, reporting, analysis, and use; and engage in active dialogue and activities with peers and TA providers around trending data quality topics. Teams will leave the Interactive Institutes with powerful ideas and actionable plans to improve their work processes and data quality.
We want to see you there! Stay tuned for more information.
