The Census community team is launching Summer Community Days, a 2-day practitioner-first event on July 28-29, designed to support data practitioners in learning from each other and sharing expertise. The event will feature virtual programming and in-person happy hours in select US cities, covering technical deep dives and business-driven sessions to help attendees build their skills and network with peers. A call for proposals is also open for 30-minute presentations on various topics related to data management and leadership, with a deadline of June 30 at 11:59 pm PT. The event aims to provide a platform for data practitioners to learn from each other, share knowledge, and stand out in their careers.
