Abstract | In the information era, enterprises strive to be productive and efficient. One feature of this goal is for employers to engage their employees in education programs, to help them to gain new experiences and knowledge and to adapt to an ever-changing working environment. Such programs must be carefully designed in order to achieve satisfactory results. Recently, enterprises, recognising the role that technology can play in the education of their employees, have adopted systems that supplement the traditional educational model with mechanisms that enable the sharing of experiences and knowledge. In this paper we describe an architecture and a system prototype that allows users to search easily for information, interact with colleagues and share experiences, and to compose and disseminate best practices and knowledge. The design of this system is based on insights gained from the operation of the Greek taxation system. |
