The course provided a detailed overview of data governance concepts, including data classification, data retention, and data compliance. I appreciated the emphasis on practical skills, such as creating data governance policies and procedures, and conducting data governance audits. The course materials were comprehensive, but I felt that some sections could have been more concise.
