Course Content

Business Glossary Participation
Business glossary work needs agreed terminology, clear participation roles, and a controlled way to review and maintain definitions. This topic establishes how the glossary fits with related artifacts, how Data Governance Professionals and Data Stewards contribute across its lifecycle, and how definition quality is assessed. It then moves from analyzing existing definitions to developing and aligning glossary entries for review.
