SUMMARY:YYC DataCon Workshop - Context Engineering\, Hands On
LOCATION:BMO Centre
DESCRIPTION:Sign up for this insightful hands-on workshop taking place dur
 ing the 2026 YYC DataCon.\nYYC DataCon ticket required: A valid 2026 YYC D
 ataCon ticket is required to attend this workshop. You can purchase your t
 icket here: https://www.showpass.com/yycdatacon2026/. Please check the of
 ficial YYC DataCon schedule for the final workshop time\, room\, and event
  details.\nTime: To be announcedDuration: 2 hours. Part 1 before lunch and
  Part 2 after lunch! Location: BMO Centre — room to be announcedSkill l
 evel: Beginner-friendly\; basic familiarity with data analytics or SQL is 
 helpful but not required.Required: Bring your own laptop so you can follow
  along!\nSetup instructions will be sent to registered attendees ahead of 
 the workshop. Please make sure you have permission to install any required
  software on your laptop.\nWorkshop description\nPoint an AI agent at a ra
 w warehouse and it will guess — at joins\, at definitions\, at what your
  metrics mean — and hand you a confident wrong answer. The fix isn't a s
 marter agent. It's making the definitions unavoidable — every query goes
  through a layer that defines them.\nHands-on with Malloy\, the open-sourc
 e semantic modeling language: what a semantic layer is\, why it's the righ
 t form of context for analytics\, and how to build one.\nWhat we'll cover\
 n\nSemantic layers: what they are\, and why they're the substrate AI analy
 tics needs\nMalloy: the language\, and what changes when meaning lives in 
 the model rather than in queries\nThe open-source agent tooling: Malloy Pu
 blisher's MCP tools and skills that enable modeling and analysis workflows
 \nBuilding a semantic model to capture business meaning\nAnalyzing data to
  find trustworthy answers to any question\nBuilding data apps on a governe
 d model\n\nBring a laptop and\, if you have one\, some data you'd like to 
 explore. We'll send setup instructions ahead of time so you can hit the gr
 ound running\, but showing up cold and using sample data is completely fin
 e!\nIf you bring your own data\, please make sure it does not contain conf
 idential\, sensitive\, or proprietary information that you are not authori
 zed to use during the workshop.\nOpen source throughout. Come with questio
 ns\; we'd rather go deep on your data problems than march through slides.\
 nWho should attend: Data analysts\, analytics engineers\, data engineers\,
  BI developers\, data scientists\, and anyone interested in building more 
 trustworthy AI-powered analytics.\nPlease note: This workshop is part of t
 he 2026 YYC DataCon program. A YYC DataCon ticket (purchase here: https://
 www.showpass.com/yycdatacon2026/) is required for entry\, and attendees sh
 ould refer to the official conference schedule for the confirmed time\, ro
 om\, and any final workshop updates.\n\nBoletos: https://www.showpass.com/
