Web-Enabled E-Learning Knowledge Management Certificate (Post Bachelor's)

 The certificate in Knowledge Management provides essential knowledge and skills about knowledge management to interested information professionals, delivered primarily in online mode. It is designed for information professionals who, whether by time or distance or job commitments, cannot come to the Kent campus for on-site instruction. Admission requirements are the same as for the full degree. Students must complete 18 credits for the certificate program, typically six 3-credit courses, three of which are required including IAKM 61096 Individual Investigation or IAKM 61081 Capstone experience.

Students electing to enter the full degree program should use the Master’s Project, Thesis, or Capstone Experience options to fulfill the third requirement rather than the Individual Investigation which may be useful for those students earning the certificate only.
