1Spatial become a corporate member of DAMA UK

DAMA is a global community of Data Management Professionals organised around local membership-based chapters. The chapters are supported by DAMA -International who maintain the Data Management Body of Knowledge (DMBoK) and the Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) certification. DAMA UK is a local chapter, and the aim is to nurture a community of data professionals in the UK who champion the value of data management.

1Spatial joined the association to gain insights, knowledge, a deeper understanding and development of managing data and information as key enterprise assets, in order to support the organisations that are served and supported by 1Spatial.

Bob Chell, Chief Product Officer, 1Spatial, commented;

“The UK Chapter of DAMA has always had great links to the British Computer Society (BCS), and I've always learnt a lot from their joint events in the past. So it is great to move to a corporate membership for the UK Chapter of DAMA, which will help more 1Spatialers share ideas and experiences with like-minded people on everything from business and data governance, to executing location master data management plans to unlock the value of data. We will be taking advantage of the great membership benefits that are available, from CDMP certification, as well as getting through the great back catalogue of content, and contributing to the content as well.”

Mark Humphries, Managing Consultant, DAMA UK, commented;

“We are delighted that 1Spatial has joined DAMA UK. Corporate membership sends out a clear message to customers that a company really values their data and that they support their employees in developing data management skills. Our members make DAMA UK what it is, and I look forward to meeting our new members from 1Spatial.”
