KM Profession

Denham makes some critical comments about KM courses.

I agree with most of his comments. Compared to more established professions (and my comparison here is based on my origins as a librarian), the field is vaguely defined and still unstable - or "dynamic" if you prefer.

On the other hand, many practitioners are woefully ignorant of theories and practices available outside their own immediate organisational experience. The education they require is probably modular and heterogenous - and should be aligned with their day-to-day jobs.

People want bite-sized pieces not 10-course banquets.
