Knowledge Management Certificate

Post-Baccalaureate Certificate Program

The Center for Knowledge Management at Dominican University uses an interdisciplinary approach to the field of knowledge management developed by the Graduate School of Library and Information Science and the Graduate School of Business and Information Systems. The knowledge management certificate program enables participants to gain the educational background to build a career as knowledge management officers, knowledge management specialists and the like.

Some of the learning objectives of this certificate program are to:
  • understand knowledge management concepts
  • become familiar with knowledge management tools
  • facilitate mapping of knowledge assets in organizations
  • design and implement knowledge management systems
  • create a knowledge-sharing culture within organizations.
Upon successful completion of the certificate program, participants may apply for admission to the Master of Science in knowledge management degree program. Courses completed in the certificate program may be credited toward the master's degree. It is also possible to present the knowledge management certificate for credit toward a Master of Library and Information Science or Master of Business Administration degree, upon acceptance into one of these programs.

Admission

Admission is open to students who hold the baccalaureate degree in any field. Transcripts or other evidence showing completion of a bachelor's degree must accompany the application.

Courses taken prior to matriculation into the certificate program cannot be applied toward fulfilling the requirements for the certificate. Approved courses may be presented in substitution for fulfillment of the requirements of the certificate.

"Our graduate program gives students the skills to build both a solid foundation on the core values of librarianship and a thorough knowledge of emerging technologies, trends and innovation in the field."
