IDMA ANNUAL MEETINGS & SEMINARS PRESENTATION PROPOSALS – IDMA is planning to issue a “call for speakers” sometime in August. Stay tuned! If you are interested in being on the “call for speakers” email blast, please send your contact information to Farouk Yassine at FYassine@IDMA.org. IDMA ONE-DAY TRAINING WORKSHOPS IDMA offers two One-Day Training Workshops geared towards insurance industry professionals: Data Management for Insurance Professionals (DMIP), and Insurance Data Quality (IDQ). These workshops are available at a discounted price of $149 per attendee. These IDMA workshops are highly recommended for a wide audience including new hires, IT personnel who want to broaden their knowledge of the business side of insurance data management, anyone who manages data in the industry (statistical or financial data), and anyone who needs to use or communicate good quality data – from actuaries to underwriters. The full-day workshops include practical discussions and a case study for interactive participation. For more information (agendas/proposals) about One-Day/Half-Day class opportunities, please contact Farouk Yassine at FYassine@IDMA.org or call 201-469-3069. IDMA CHAPTERS The topics and agenda are informal and dictated by meeting participants, but to get the ball rolling and focus discussions, a list of proposed topics for discussion is provided below:
Again, topics of discussion are very fluid and can change during the meeting, provided they involve data management, are in keeping with IDMA guidelines, and are of interest to participants. Please bring to the table those business and data problems you are currently tackling and data management challenges you expect to encounter in the future? Space is limited and pre-registration is required. If you are interested in attending, please send an email with your contact information and additional suggested topics of discussions (if any), to FYassine@IDMA.org. MEMBERS DISCOUNT — INDUSTRY EVENTS Your business needs to make informed decisions fast. But it's hard to do that when the insights you need are locked in volumes of data, and the reports required to interpret that data could take months to build. Today, many affordable technologies are making agile BI attainable, even for small businesses. The August 15-20 TDWI Conference in San Diego offers access to six days of in-depth education from in-the-trenches experts and industry heavyweights on BI essentials, developing the agile BI environment, and data management.

IDMA Mission Statement | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Insurance Data Management Association, Inc. (IDMA) is an independent, non-profit, professional learned association dedicated to increasing the level of professionalism, knowledge, and visibility of insurance data management. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Value Proposition | |||||||||||||||||||||
With every advance in technology, the value of data increases. Evolving and new technologies make sharing data fairly simple, but if bad information moves through a process, the costs grow exponentially at each step. Data must be managed to ensure quality, to ensure maximum benefit to the organization. If Senior Managers receive bad data, how can they properly manage? If Marketing receives incorrect information, the dollar value of lost opportunities can only be guessed. In the realm of regulatory or statutory reporting, bad data may create a liability for your organization. All of the Actuarial, Claims, Compliance, Finance, and Information Technology functions need reliable data to work with. The data manager's function is to provide other managers with the information they need to fulfill their role. | |||||||||||||||||||||
