Carnegie Mellon University Australia (CMU-A) has partnered with the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA), a training academy for top Indian Civil Services to train around 500 new public servants from the Indian Administrative Service, Indian Foreign Service, Indian Police Service, and from Group A services of the Union and the Royal Bhutan Service.
CMU-A will deliver a Data Analytics Master Certificate (DAMC) executive program that will educate participants on how to effectively combine the benefits of data utilization, innovative technology, and smart policy to have a transformative and meaningful impact on the lives of their constituents.
DAMC Program Director and Professor of Information Technology at CMU-A, Murli Viswanathan said, “Data is a critical government asset that needs to be treated with respect and harnessed for the greater good. We feel that when officials imbibe this mindset in conjunction with modern AI driven data analytics techniques, they’ll be able to better manage social problems using evidence-based decision making.”
The executive program has 4 modules that will run for three hours a week. The program will launch this Friday, February 4 and is expected to conclude by the 2nd week of March. The DAMC executive program will be fully conducted in a virtual classroom setup and will be delivered from CMU-A’s state-of-the-art C3 Innovations Lab.
The executive program has four (4) modules:
- Module 1: Modern Data Management
- Module 2: Analytics for Public Policy
- Module 3: Business Intelligence and Data Analytics
- Module 4: Analytics Case Study Workshop – Public Administration; Finance; Law and Order
