The Agentic Data Quality (ADQ) Certificate Program, offered through the CDOIQ Program, will be delivered both virtually and in-person at the Hyatt Regency Boston–Cambridge on Monday, July 20, 2026, the day before the 20th Annual CDOIQ Symposium. Out-of-town participants are encouraged to plan their travel so they arrive on Sunday evening, ensuring they are ready and in their seats when the course begins promptly at 8:30 AM.
The program is designed for senior data leaders who are shaping the future of governance and quality in the era of Agentic AI. This program equips participants with the frameworks, tools, and collaborative practices needed to ensure that data remains trustworthy, actionable, and aligned with organizational goals in increasingly autonomous environments.
Through a blend of executive-level instruction, case studies, and peer exchange, participants will:
- Gain a deep understanding of agentic data governance principles.
- Learn practical strategies for embedding data quality standards into AI-driven systems.
- Explore international perspectives and best practices from leading experts.
- Build a professional network of peers committed to advancing responsible data leadership
Seating is limited to 30 in-person participants and 60 virtual participants, so early registration is encouraged.
“I was and am still skeptical of Agentic AI, however I now feel much better informed about what it is and what it is not I also now have some takeaway ideas for my PhD dissertation research direction.”
David Finlay, Data Driven Associates LLC
“Exceptional vision in putting this training together and selecting the trainers! Dr. Talburt and Mark Ramsey rocked it! This is the missing piece that explains why AI solutions fail. Brilliant!”
Alba Aleman, Citizant
“I can’t imagine a more useful, enlightening, and inspiring introduction to the topic of Agentic Data Quality. The instructors were world-class and the agenda was very well constructed. The demo of a real agentic data quality system.”
Bruce Miligan, Citizant
“Overall, this was great. It was valuable in a couple ways: 1) validated some items, showing me that current challenges aren’t unique to me, 2) taught me new things that we can apply right away, 3) provided perspective on maximizing opportunities and minimizing risks.”
Christopher Lundquist, VML
“Amazing speakers – so accomplished and knowledgeable in Agentic AI. The program provided just enough depth – not too technical to lose the intention but enough of a deep dive to be very useful. Program was online which made it accessible for anyone to participate.”
Tammy Baker
“Comprehensive! Covering architecture, the agentic ai loop with continuous improvement, a demo, and creating our own plan was awesome. I feel like I got a crash course in ai agents and how they can improve our workflows. It felt like an efficient use of my time and was engaging.”
Emma Zawacki, United Community
“The course covered a wide range of important topics from building a GenAI advisor for your company, development and demonstration of end-to-end Agentic AI process, and overview to organization of the data management. Particularly the end-to-end demonstration was an important part.”
