A program designed to prepare individuals for careers in knowledge services, which could include learning organizations and technology software and service providers, is being offered by UC-Santa Cruz (California) at their Silicon Valley Campus located at the NASA Ames Research Center in the South Bay at Moffett Field. It is not clear from the information in the brochure how many (if any) courses are online. Nevertheless, the certificate program appears to be very valuable.
Knowledge Services and Enterprise Management (KSEM) Certificate Program is USCS Extension graduate-level certificate program at the UCSC Silicon Valley Campus in cooperation with the UCSC Baskin School of Engineering. The courses are offered face-to-face. Some may be offered online, but it’s not clear from the informational materials.
While the program is interdisciplinary, individuals must have a solid background in statistics, and should be familiar with stochastic processes and other algorithmic approaches. KSEM is, according to UCSC literature, a program that requires students to bring together the application of information technology and the knowledge services to enable individuals to manage high tech enterprises and other complex systems. Ideas from many different fields come together with the goal of addressing challenges faced in today’s global and knowledge-based economy.
The program could be beneficial for individuals who would like to work in knowledge management systems design, enterprise systems design, new product and service development, portfolio management (products and services), service management and e-business, marketing and product positioning, global supply and value change management, manufacturing and outsourcing, business intelligence, and risk management.
Core courses cover areas such as technology and information management, knowledge services and data analytics, data mining, eBusiness technology and strategy, and more.
