Ministry of Advanced Education Central Data Warehouse: Quality Assurance and the Data Quality Management Plan
Ministry of Advanced Education
The Ministry of Advanced Education, post secondary institutions, and others require data for a variety of purposes, including research and analysis, as a basis for decision-making, and to satisfy accountability requirements. The Central Data Warehouse (CDW) was developed to serve those purposes by collecting a standard set of data from public postsecondary institutions, and storing that data in a central database that can be accessed by the Ministry, post secondary institutions and other users under particular approved circumstances. The objective of the Data Quality Management Plan (DQMP), which is presented and explained in this document, is to ensure that the CDW data is of sufficient quality to serve its purposes and that the quality of the data is actively managed for ongoing improvement over time.
