Corporate Training Programs, Knowledge Management Degrees, Corporate Trainer
A lot of bright, glib consultants have made successful careers out of Corporate Training. In a nutshell, Corporate Training is teaching about communication – perhaps in the form of new software or technology or data management, but communication nonetheless. Making communication more efficient, more frequent, more accurate and more informative. There is no doubt that accomplishing one or more of these goals will make corporations function more smoothly, therefore make fewer mistakes, ergo make more money.
One of the technical and philosophical paradigms that has emerged as part of the Information Imparting Technology now upon us is Knowledge Management. If you don’t want to miss it, you can get an MBA with specialization on the subject from JonesInternational University. You can also do a fair amount of mind-twisting Web research on the topic, if you are so inclined. If it brings you any comfort, Microsoft is all over this concept with information sharing (a knowledge management function) software packages; upgrades, bugs and all.
Be advised that there are people out there in the E-World who get paid for lecturing on document management! Documents being, to some degree, unitary precursors of knowledge, you can imagine the fortune to be made if you become an expert on Knowledge Management. You need only educate yourself.
