One interesting subject found of free education, part time self study mode:-

http://www.mastersportal.eu/students/browse/programme/11226/msc-human-resource-management.html

Information researcher here:-

Unit 1 discusses the scientific method, the process of generation of the research evidence in a knowledge base and the role of consensus in deciding how and where research is published.

Unit 2 discusses the format of research evidence in various databases, and how such databases are searched.

Unit 3 covers critical appraisal skills required for selecting and using the evidence.

Unit 4 discusses how to implement a culture which values an evidence-based approach to practice, and how to achieve awareness and acceptance of research information in the process of implementing research findings.

Unit 5 discusses the presentation of the research evidence, demonstrating how changing the way in which statistics on risk are presented can affect our attitudes to whether the evidence is compelling or not.

Unit 6 examines some possible future directions to information systems research and `evidence-based practice? for information professionals

Knowledge Management Architecture by Daryl Morey

"In this age of information, knowledge is the most important factor in the long-term success of both an individual and an organization. In fact, Peter Senge believes that the only source of competitive advantage in the future will be the knowledge that an organization contains and an organization’s ability to learn faster than the competition.
With knowledge taking on increased importance, it makes sense that there is an opportunity to create competitive advantage by effectively man- aging its storage and use. An effective knowledge management architecture creates competitive advantage by bringing appropriate knowledge to the point of action during the moment of need. Employee turnover is also reduced because a large portion of the knowledge and expertise acquired by the employee is captured in the knowledge base." to find out more...

Pre-requisite for Advanced Workshops Please note that this course is not part of the Lottery. The class has unlimited enrollment.

With the burst of the Internet bubble in the late 90s, computing, cyberspace, and the digital revolution were delivered a healthy dose of fiscal responsibility. While certain divisions of technology have been forced to readjust to the demands of the economy, the architectural profession has largely been undaunted in its use of computing. Computing in Architecture has reached a certain ubiquity that the idea of practicing without it seems incomprehensible. It has changed our method of representation in the form of images, retooled construction techniques, and made communication of complex information instantaneous.

In this state of ubiquitous computing, the architect is asked to not only grasp these new technologies but to shape them into the built environment. As the edge between the virtual and real become increasingly thin, the architect must not only be proficient in this interactivity, but tool it toward new ideas and potentials that are rife within this expanding territory.

While Fundamentals of Digital Design is an introductory course in computing, it will build on the student's advanced ability to question, shape, and interrogate space and time. The course will interrogate the computer as a design tool of representation and analysis. This interrogation will be framed in the concepts, techniques, and methodologies of computer aided design. Students will study the operative relationship between 2d and 3d data and be will asked to explore the reaches of their potential.

The semester will be broken down into two workshops which will be focused on introduction of two software packages: Discreet's 3dsMax and Alias's Maya.

Course Outline:
Week 01 Course Introduction
Weeks 02-06 3dsMax fundamentals, Instructor Joshua Uhl
