ECU Data Retreat 2023

In each of the last four years, an ECU Data Retreat has been held in the spring term. In general, the retreats have focused on data quality, and each retreat has been centered around a specific type of data. This year’s data retreat was broader in focus and open to any member of the university community wishing to attend. The overall theme of the retreat was Data Literacy with three virtual workshops scheduled over the course of three days in mid-March 2023.
