Data Governance
Regis University recognizes that data are critical assets and enterprise-wide data represent a resource that the university need to consider in strategic decision-making. To support effective and innovative management, university data must be accessible, must correctly represent the information intended, and must be easily integrated across Regis University’s information systems. The purpose of data governance through the Data and Rules Congress is to develop university-wide policies and procedures that ensure that university data meet these criteria within and across Regis University’s data systems.
Data governance is shared among the executive sponsors, data stewards, data custodians, and data users through the activities of the Data and Rules Congress.
- Data Stewards represent a broad perspective of university data functions and have planning and policy responsibility and accountability for data systems. Data stewards are appointed by the Executive Sponsor to implement and create data policies. As members of the Data and Rules Congress, they are responsible for safeguarding data from unauthorized access and abuse through established procedures and educational programs.
- Data Custodians are university employees whose duties provide them with an intricate understanding of the data in their functional area. They work with the data stewards to establish procedures for the responsible management of data, including data entry and reporting.
- Informer Committee members are formally trained Informer report writers and are responsible for the output of data into operational departmental reports; however, some reports are utilized university wide. Members are data custodians who can ensure that all reporting adheres to the same standards and governance, regardless of the reporting tool used.
- Module Administrator Committee (MAC) custodians are university employees whose duties provide them with an intricate understanding of the university ERP system, Ellucian Colleague, and the module in their respective areas. They work with the data stewards to establish procedures for responsible management of the module processes, access, upgrades, testing, and third party systems that impact the Colleague system and modules.
These representatives contribute to the data governance program and enable the practice of making strategic and effective decisions regarding Regis University's information assets.
