Nonprofit Datafolk Club - Dealing with messy data
In this Nonprofit Datafolk Club workshop we'll be focusing on messy data. In an ideal world, all of the data we work with would be beautifully organised, tidy and clean... but we all have to wrangle with poor quality data sometimes.
Participants will be invited to discuss the following questions in small groups:
What are the most common data quality issues you come across in your work?
What are your go-to approaches when dealing with messy data?
What methods have you found most effective for improving data quality?
Please note that our Nonprofit Datafolk Club events are a workshop environment where people are expected to be on camera and actively participate.
What is Nonprofit Datafolk Club?
Our Nonprofit Datafolk Club is a friendly group of like-minded data folk working in or with nonprofits. Every month we get together online for a free interactive workshop to share expertise, ask questions and discuss anything data-related.
Previous attendees have said:

"The format is good and the topics are always interesting."
"It was useful to speak to people from other organisations to hear what they are doing. Talking about the challenges we're facing here was helpful and I came away with a clearer understanding of our position."
