Harness the power of data to improve and develop health and social care services

Data can be powerful in health and social care. It can be used to develop new services, influence strategies, inform budget decisions and optimise processes and policy.

On this course you’ll learn how to make the most of data. Find out what data should be gathered, best practices around data governance, what tools and techniques will help you manage and analyse data, and how to work collaboratively with data scientists and digital teams.

Using real world case studies you’ll gain practical experience of that you can use in your own work to create sustainable health and social care services.

The course is for frontline, middle and senior management staff working in the health and care sectors. The course will also be suitable for students, academics and industry suppliers of services and systems to healthcare.

Participants will need access to Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel.
