Welcome to EDM Council’s Women Data Professionals Forum. Both our members and guests are invited to participate in this open interest group.
We are excited about this initiative to advance women in our profession and build an active and effective community.
The mission of the Women Data Professionals group is to provide support for and promote women in the field of data and assist in their development and promotion to more senior roles.
ALL are welcome to join and participate – women and men alike.
There are many opportunities to get involved, whether you are seeking guidance, providing your perspective or professional support, or just looking to connect and expand your network.
The group’s dedicated area within EDMConnect (our online portal) provides a central location for information exchange and collaboration:
The group is global. We are organized into regional chapters – Americas, EMEA and APAC – and we also have committees that look after different initiatives and activities. Leadership positions are also available.

Spring 2023 Program – Registration is OPEN for MENTORS ONLY until February 17, 2023!
EDM Council’s WDP (Women Data Professionals) forum is pleased to invite professional women with 20+ years experience to participate as mentors in the Spring 2023 Mentoring Program. The WDP Mentoring team believes that women who have mentors have a better chance of advancing their careers to the level they wish to achieve. We also believe learning from the experiences of others can help women better manage the challenge of balancing work and personal life!
The WDP Mentoring Program is focused on supporting women with work experience who are striving to advance their careers to the next level. The program will bring together groups of mentees and mentors into teams that will meet virtually three times during the spring season (March-June 2023), following a virtual kick-off event in March. Senior leaders from the EDM Council community will provide guidance and support on topics of interest provided by mentees.
Participants will commit to 5-6 hours over the course of 4 months from March to June, 2023. The program will run during US EST time zone hours. See FAQs for more information.
Women who have work experience and have a desire to learn from their peers.
REGISTRATION CLOSED
Individuals with 20+ years of work experience.
