Joseph DeVore's Blog: ARRA

I'm pretty excited to speak at, The Higher Education Data Warehousing Forum (HEDW) about our team's "Rapid Response Data Mart" - a set of tools that we use to meet the University of Washington's federal reporting requirements.

Being one of three entities in America to accomplish ARRA Federal Reporting using automated XML vs. Excel Spreadsheets or through the federalreporting.gov website.

Looking forward to doing this presentation with Rachel Gatlin. It should be fun and stressful ;-)

HEDW is a network of higher education colleagues dedicated to promoting the sharing of knowledge and best practices regarding knowledge management in colleges and universities, including building data warehouses, developing institutional reporting strategies, and providing decision support.

The Forum meets once a year and sponsors a series of listservs to promote communication among technical developers and administrators of data access and reporting systems, data custodians, institutional researchers, and consumers of data representing a variety of internal university audiences.

There are approximately 780+ active members in HEDW, representing professionals from 390+ institutions found in 20+ different countries and 43+ different states.
