DataLinkCT (formerly P20 WIN) Data Stewards

The Data Steward Committee was formed in addition to the Data Governance Executive Board and Data Governing Board to address data quality issues and other questions and concerns. Data Stewards are identified by each DataLinkCT (formerly P20 WIN) participating agency or organization and are responsible for maintaining and creating datasets for approved data requests.

A data steward is responsible for various aspects of their agency or organization’s data, and may be institutional researchers and information technology staff. They implement Data Governing Board policies, define data standards, and assess technical data matching processes in the DataLinkCT (formerly P20 WIN) system. They may also make recommendations to the Data Governing Board on the creation and improvement of policies and procedures, including data security recommendations.
