Foundations in Data for Pierce County’s Non-Technical Workforce

Less technical employees in Pierce County often struggle to accurately interpret data-driven reports, leading to miscommunication and gaps between technical and non-technical teams. To address this, we designed an accessible, beginner-friendly data literacy resource tailored to staff with little to no technical background. Rather than functioning as a structured course, this modular guide is designed to serve as a quick reference tool for employees. The outcome is a learning platform that breaks down key data concepts using real-world and workplace-relevant examples. This initiative helps bridge communication gaps, assists employees to engage with data more confidently, and supports more effective collaboration across county departments.
