Academic Health Center Task Force - Knowledge Management Technology

Revised Recommendations
(May 12, 2006)

Health professional education and care delivery are undergoing rapid electronification. This transformation is accompanied by a shift from a teaching to a learning model in education and closer coupling of health professional education and care delivery. These changes necessitate envisioning how, over the next five years, we will use electronic technology in education and care delivery to provide outstanding and cutting-edge academic programs and care.   

The task force will develop a Knowledge Management Technology Plan for the Academic Health Center that defines knowledge management technology use and needs, the competencies of health professional students, faculty and staff, and the technical infrastructure requirements of the plan. The task force will also develop a plan for acquisition of knowledge management technology and implementation of the plan.

Report due: May 1, 2006
