The Ethics Of Analytics
As more and more data is being collected, concerns are constantly being raised about what data is appropriate to collect and how (or if) it should be analyzed. There are many ethical, privacy, and legal issues to consider and no clear standards exist in many cases as to what is fair and what is foul. This means that organizations must consider their own principles, the principles of their stakeholders, and their own risk tolerance in order to implement the right policies.
This course will cover a range of ethical, privacy, and legal issues that surround analytics today, as well as what may be expected in the future. It will frame the big questions to consider while providing some of the trade offs and ambiguities that must be addressed to answer those questions. With liberal use of real-world examples and group discussion, attendees will come away with a better grasp of how to further the ethics of their own analytics.
