Data stewards fill essential roles in managing data assets. They serve as leaders, managers, facilitators, problem solvers, and coaches to ensure that data is accessible, usable, protected, and trustworthy. Data strategy, data governance, data quality, data definition, and metadata management are among the important activities where data stewards are essential.

Reviewer: Song Kinnamon

The level of detail using pictorial/visual representation to define the topic was helpful and effective. There was a lot of material covered in this course. Did not like the knowledge check questions when asked to bucket the item. The items should be list.

Some of the Knowledge checks came prior to learning the section. I believe it would be helpful to have it after learning the section.
