Earlier this year, I released my first Pluralsight course, “Managing Excel Workbooks for Analytics.“
I learned a ton about creating high-quality video instruction from this project, and was introduced to an amazing network of technology professionals.
Of the many truly amazing benefits I’ve found from being a Pluralsight author, I was really excited about getting to attend the legendary Pluralsight LIVE conference.
From everything I’d seen, LIVE lives up to its claim as the “ultimate technology skills conference.” I was looking forward to my trip to the Utah headquarters for this year’s LIVE, until it became clear that 2020 wasn’t that kind of year.
True to its form as an innovative gathering, however, LIVE has emerged as an online conference. Best of all, Pluralsight LIVE 2020 is entirely free to attend. Mark your calendars for Tues Oct 13 – Thrs Oct 15!

My session on “Building the Data Academy” will be presented on Thursday, Oct 15th at 1:30pm Eastern.
I’m so happy to participate in this virtual offering about a topic both Pluralsight and I are skilled and passionate about: data up-skilling.
I’ll be offering a 30-minute workshop on “building the data academy:” from making clear the need, to its design and implementation, to how to measures its effectiveness.
Attendees will receive a free starter worksheet helping them answer the questions needed to build a successful data academy.
Full talk description below:
In September 2019, McKinsey called for the rise of the in-house “analytics academy” to up-skill employees’ data literacy and prepare organizations for the changes from artificial intelligence and automation. In this session, I will share tips for designing effective data analytics training programs acquired from working with leading technology and development organizations. Attendees will gain a step-by-step blueprint for building a data analytics academy, making the case to management, to identifying candidates and topics, to measuring its effectiveness.
This talk will be pre-recorded and presented Thursday, October 15th at 1:30 PM Eastern. I will be available in the chat to answer your questions real-time. (Did I mention it’s all free and online?)
I hope to see you at the session and I hope at other LIVE events, too.
So what are you waiting for?
