March 26, 2026 | 2 p.m. Eastern
Live, virtual
Are you tired of wasting time searching for information, reviewing multiple versions of the same file, or finding duplicate records in your donor database? You’re not alone.
Join us for a free one-hour webinar to learn how to turn messy data and disorganized shared drives into accurate, reliable information that helps your nonprofit make smarter decisions, strengthen fundraising and reporting, and reclaim valuable staff time. You’ll learn what “data governance” really means in non-technical terms and walk away with practical steps you can implement immediately to improve the accuracy, consistency, and organization of your data. No new software or technical expertise required!
Learn how to:
- Explain the difference between data, information, and knowledge, and describe why data governance and data quality are essential for nonprofits.
- Identify common data and document management challenges and understand how these issues impact staff time, productivity, and organizational risk.
- Apply practical, low-lift strategies to improve how data and documents are organized, trusted, and used across their organization.
Who should attend?
The session is designed for organizations of all sizes and does not require new software or a dedicated data team to apply what’s learned.
