Register now for DND/CAF Data Day 2022!

November 14, 2022 - Defence Stories

ADM(DIA) is pleased to announce that DND/CAF Data Day is back again this year! This year’s Data Day will be held virtually on November 24, 2022.

Last year’s inaugural DND/CAF Data Day was a great success in “advancing a data-driven Defence Team.” This year’s full-day virtual event aims to build on that success and highlight further advances in implementing the DND/CAF Data Strategy — this time with a focus on Ethics in Data and Analytics.

At last year’s conference we heard how we must embrace the use of data to enable our culture change and how we must share responsibility in using data transparently, responsibly and ethically. These meaningful discussions provided the backdrop for our theme this year “Shaping better outcomes with ethical data use.”

Event Information:

• Date: Thursday, November 24, 2022
• Time: 08:30 to 16:00 (ET)
• Audience: All CAF members and DND employees at all levels, particularly those working in data-related fields.
• Language: Bilingual
• Location: This event will be delivered virtually on MS Teams. A link to the live broadcast will be provided to registered participants. 

Registration deadline: Tuesday, November 22. To register, fill out this form (you are now leaving the Government of Canada website) (user identification and password required) while logged in to your Defence 365 account. (accessible only on the National Defence network).

Description:

DIA proudly welcomes back former ADM(DIA) Mr. Stephen Burt, now the Government of Canada’s Chief Data Officer, to deliver the keynote address.

Attendees can also look forward to various panel discussions, breakout sessions and networking opportunities. Data Day will feature guests and data experts from within DND/CAF and other Government of Canada departments. Interactive discussions will focus on such topics as ethical data governance, data culture in the CAF, women in data and many more.

All Defence Team members are invited. We hope to see you there!
