Becoming the Data-Driven Enterprise-Understanding Modern Data Analytics – Webcast – June 18, 2020

Technology is constantly changing, becoming more powerful, cost effective, and pervasive. In particular, there is a major focus on data-driven decision-making and creating the modern, data-driven enterprise. Every business is impacted by the rapid changes in technology. In fact, data technologies in particular are transforming how we work and fundamentally changing how businesses of every type and size operate.

In order to stay ahead of these changes, business leaders need to understand the current trends and capabilities of modern data technologies. This course will cover (and demonstrate) current trends and capabilities of modern, cloud-based data analytics tools and other practical guidance on how to take advantage of these capabilities. We will also investigate how cloud-based technologies are influencing current trends and what to consider when evaluating cloud-based tools. Finally, we will investigate how artificial intelligence, like machine learning, can transform every business.

NOTE: Participants should be willing to talk to the group to share past experiences and lessons learned regarding data analytics from the perspective of their own organizations and careers.

Professional Conduct & Ethics 

IMPORTANT! Effective January 1, 2020, the Oregon Board of Accountancy's (BOA's) ethics CPE renewal requirement for Oregon licensees was changed.

Beginning July 1, 2020, ALL active and inactive Oregon licensees are required to take an Oregon-specific ethics course to meet the CPE requirement for renewal. This means licensees renewing in 2021 and beyond will be affected by the rule change.

Even-numbered licensees

• Ethics CPE may be general or Oregon-specific for renewal on June 30, 2020.

Odd-numbered licensees

• Ethics CPE must be Oregon-specific from a BOA-registered sponsor for renewal on June 30, 2021.

Oregon-specific ethics training must be accomplished by attending a BOA registered sponsor's professional conduct and ethics program. For additional details regarding the BOA's ethics CPE requirements refer to OAR 801-040-0010. The provisions of these new rules should be reviewed carefully for applicability to each professional's licensing requirement and compliance.
