• GOODevents & Activities

    Continuing in 2024, we’ll be working on two projects:
    - DIY Open Data Toolkit refresh
    - Open Data Certification program
    We’d welcome your participation in either or both of these projects.

    A new type of event called GOODsolutions which will be a bi-monthly event for members to design and develop open data best practices. We’re looking for municipalities to be hosts for these in-person meetings. Tentative date for this event is February 28th.

    Join us March 26 for our webinar on Data Analytics. Details and Registration will follow shortly - FREE to GOOD members.

    Let us know if there’s something specific you’d like to see as an event - contact us at connect@go-opendata.ca
