What Our Members Say....

"Most of us are too busy in our jobs to be experts about every aspect of the data we need and use. APDU gives you the resources to be the instant data expert when you need to be."

"The nature of public data is changing in rapid and dramatic fashion: new forms of data collection, changes in processing methods, new ways of distributing data, all a result of changes in the very basic philosophies regarding public data in the information age. The fact is that many of us can be caught off-guard by these changes, sometimes to the point where data programs disappear before our eyes. Being part of APDU ensures you a place at the table, a voice as these key decisions are being made."

"The federal statistical system is distant, boring, incomprehensible, and even annoying to the average businessman or citizen. Yet no private concern could possibly afford or justify a data collection effort that would come anywhere near to the quantity and quality of the public administrative and survey data that are endangered by congressional actions. These data could simply disappear! Being a member of APDU is a wonderful opportunity to help protect one of our most precious business assets, our public data resources."
