This two-day course will present an introduction and application to the principles and practices of developing Information Architecture (IA). The course will present and demonstrate IA and its connection to Knowledge Management (KM) and Enterprise Content Management, with additional advance topics where IA is making an impact (Big Data Analytics and Internet of Things – “IoT”).

Delivering Knowledge as a Service – KaaS, is not the same as Software as a Service (SaaS) although both share the foundational aspect of being cloud based. KaaS is about delivering the right knowledge to the right person in the right context at the right time via desktop, laptop or any mobile device. Catchy, yes but practical! KaaS delivery of knowledge consists of both explicit and tacit knowledge. It allows for access to tangible knowledge such as how-to’s, lessons learned, best practices, proven workflows, case studies, procedural manuals, plans, and templates as well as to the people who are experts about that knowledge. KaaS brings together KM and AI for intelligent delivery and access to knowledge.

This program will provide the participants with the understanding of KaaS as well as the tools and techniques to launch KaaS at their organization.

PROGRAM TITLE: Diversity for Dollars: Real Talk on the Value of Diversity Certification
SPEAKER: Jamie Crump

PRESENTATION SUMMARY
This session is designed for diverse entrepreneurs who are considering obtaining a diversity certification or renewing their certification. They may be new to supplier diversity or on the fence about whether or not they want to keep their certification.

In her talk, “Diversity for Dollars: Real Talk on the Value of Diversity Certification” Jamie Crump reaches into her experience developing, managing and growing supplier diversity strategies in Corporate America. This presentation gets to the root of when diversity certification is a good business decision for entrepreneurs whether they have been in business for years or are just starting out. This candid presentation is about what happens after the certification and answers the questions: What should you expect to see in the way of benefits and dollars? What should you be ready to do to obtain it?

DESIRED ACHIEVABLE STATE
Obtaining diversity status (LGBTQ, disabled, minority, service-disabled veteran, veteran, and woman owned businesses) is something every diverse business owner will be told at one time or another they should get, but is it really worth it? Many diverse business owners work to obtain their certification status but are not always sure what to do with it once they have it. In this program, Jamie outlines what the business owner’s expectations should be and what they will have to do to leverage 100% of the opportunity that is out there.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE
By the end of the presentation, audience members will:
• Understand the business strategy behind supplier diversity.
• Be able to identify if certification will work for them and if so, how.
• Have a five-step methodology for assessing events for dollars.
• Identify four ways that certified companies leave opportunity and money on the table almost every time they attend an event.

PRESENTATION SUMMARY
This session is designed for people who want to improve the results of their conference or event investment. They may be attending a given conference for the first time, or one they have attended many times before. Leveraging the most effective preparation, on site actions and follow up afterwards provides a methodology for the best return.

In her talk, “Found Money” Jamie Crump looks at the opportunities often missed when attending business development, networking, and education and training conferences. This presentation gives audience members a look at the opportunities presented at these events over and above what is on the schedule. She then provides practical tips for getting the most return on investment to ensure there is no money left on the table.


DESIRED ACHIEVABLE STATE
Conferences and training events are an expensive investment. Whether people are paying for it themselves or the cost is covered by their company, they rarely get the optimal return on the investment.

Understanding what goes on behind the scenes in the planning and execution of a conference event helps audience members understand the business opportunities that are not laid out in the published agenda. Crump identifies where they are and how to best ensure all opportunities are leveraged. This allows attendees to make the most of their time spent.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE
By the end of the presentation, audience members will:
• Understand the five items needed to assess the opportunity of an event
• Receive the six essential tips on activities on site that can provide the most productive return
• Identify the four elements of research and preparation before and after the event that will ensure their encounters will be remembered.
