July 2021 Webinar – Building a Corporate Dictionary

Building a Corporate Dictionary

A practical guide to building one of the most important corporate resources
airs live Friday, 2021-07-30 at 11am EST/EDT (UTC -5/UTC -4)

Webinar Description

Data governance and data quality depend on a very low tech corporate resource – the corporate dictionary.

Every company has a corporate culture and those who join the company are expected to learn how to navigate it as quickly as possible; a corporate dictionary makes this a lot easier.

Building a corporate dictionary is very straightforward; it consists of creating a list of common words and phrases. Defining the terms is less straightforward and can be a daunting task, but it is a lot easier with access to an incredible free resource, the ECCMA Open Technical Dictionary (eOTD).

The eOTD is a typical collection of words or phrases with definitions as you would find in a language dictionary with a very special added feature. Every word or phrase is given a unique number: the concept identifier. The concept identifier is used to turn data into portable data, which is unambiguous, language independent data that preserves the meaning of data.

Join us in the monthly ECCMA webinar to learn how to use the eOTD to build and maintain your own corporate dictionary.
