A Conversation with the Godfather of Ed-Fi Collaboratives: Don Dailey of the Michigan Data Hub
Description
In this episode, we talk with Don Dailey, the 'Don' of Ed-fi collaboratives, about how he heralded the dawn of interoperability technology to Michigan's state education data systems (last godfather pun, we promise). But seriously, he does take us back to the days before personal computers, when student information and district finance systems were on mainframes. Don is the Director of Systems Integration and Interoperability providing leadership to the Michigan Data Hub project as part of the Michigan Association of Intermediate School Administrators. He spearheaded the Michigan Data Hub’s implementation of the Ed-Fi data standard nearly 9 years ago, and he won the Ed-Fi Ambassador of the Year award in 2017. Don and his team have done an amazing job of successfully coordinating data and technology stakeholders, educators, researchers, and even state legislators and other policymakers. We have learned much from him over the years and are excited to have him share a slice of his knowledge in this episode.
