AFCEA Bethesda's 4th Annual Data Symposium

This event qualifies for 1-3 CEUs

The growing data pool created by citizens sharing information in their daily lives through sensors, open data initiatives and the proliferation of the Internet of Things positions government agencies to deliver improved services and mission outcomes. The Data Symposium is focused on how government data enhances the life of the citizen.

Highlights:

With more than 130,000 data sets, learn out how the government currently uses data and the plans to improve services and protect citizens in the future.
Explore how a citizen’s daily, personal routine is impacted by open data in such areas as energy, healthcare, recreation, transportation and weather.
Discuss the potential for new business models created by emerging data trends.
Examine the ways open data can increase effectiveness for government, commercial and public needs, and the byproducts being developed through the use of open data.
Interact directly with various federal Chief Data Officers to discover how they define their role, the challenges they face and their future mission.

Please join AFCEA Bethesda and more than 300 public sector IT and management professionals to take the “Data: Impacts in the Day and Life of the Citizen” journey on June 30, 2015 at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, DC.

Continuing Education Units: AFCEA Bethesda will be providing Continuing Education Units for A+, Network+ and Storage+ to all symposium attendees.
