MIM-CKM

The increasing importance of the concepts and practices from the field of KM is evident as Malaysia moves rapidly into a knowledge-based economy. KM is an enterprise-wide strategic initiative, a multidisciplinary and cross-functional effort to improve organisational performance in the Knowledge Age. KM focuses on maximizing an organization's intellectual assets for business excellence, whether government or private enterprise.

KM draws on proven principles, practices and technologies from a wide spectrum of disciplines including: information systems management, change management, organisational learning, employee training and development, learning theory and technology, expert systems, strategic planning and project management, to name just a few. KM is not IT or about information; but, KM does stand on the shoulders of the successful Information Age we all know. Due to the complexity of KM and comprehensiveness of this blended KM Certification Program, KM expert Douglas Weidner, Chairman of the International KM Institute (IKMI) will personally lead this small group sized program, so as to best prepare you for your KM certification designation. The program will include both pre-requisite, self-paced, video e-learning and the five-day workshop.

This blended eCKMÖ program is the ideal solution for success amongst managers and leaders of KM projects. It equips you with practical, expert advice and KM Principles on how to strategize, plan and manage your organization's information and knowledge assets to improve its competitive edge if private enterprise, or its overall organizational performance, if government.

Successful completion of this advanced program will award you double certification, by both MIM and the KM Institute, as a Certified Knowledge Manager.
