Knowledge management has become an essential part of today's society. Since organizations and society in general are starting to realize the importance of knowledge for the development of the economies, higher education institutions are appearing as the central tool to develop knowledge and consequently develop society. But normally, these institutions focus on teaching and learning as their main processes and give all of their attention to developing and improving these processes. Nonetheless, higher education institutions have recognized the importance of intellectual capital to respond to the new needs of society and to improve the quality of education, so they start talking about models to measure intellectual capital, although these models, as it was previously mentioned, are being developed for production companies. The objective of this chapter is to state the importance of developing models to value intellectual capital in higher education institutions, especially at the postgraduate level.

Education In China

AbstractAfter more than 60 years of development, the People's Republic of China has established the world's largest size of legal education, with 624 law schools and 450,000 thousands of undergraduate students currently enrolled. As Wenhua Shan explains, whilst the quality of education has also been improved, it generally falls short of meeting the domestic and international challenges that China is facing in legal education and practice. The most important measure recently adopted by the Chinese Government to enhance the quality of legal education, the “Outstanding Legal Personnel Education Scheme”, is poised to bring significant changes to the structure, contents and methods of Chinese legal education; and it will boost deeper cooperation between law schools and the practice sectors. Further measures are nevertheless required to achieve the desired results of the scheme and to place Chinese legal education in an internationally competitive position.

Selection Of

Today, the market for educational services is quite congested and requires more detailed external and internal analysis of the activities of universities in order to understand the principles of attracting students. The majority of prospective enrollees to universities have certain selection criteria and the quality of education is one of the main ones. That is why such a competitive factor as a level of preparation of professors requires more detailed consideration from the point of view of personnel management. The level of preparation of the scientific and pedagogical staff includes not only the selection of certain qualifications, but also the motivation and interest in conducting quality classes. Due to the nature of the work, teachers are most susceptible to emotional burnout, so management should always keep in mind ideas aimed at preventing burnout in the collective. The aim of the work is to consider personnel management as a tool for building a competitive position of higher education institutions, to solve the problem of teachers’ burnouts and to provide recommendations for preventing this condition in order to improve the level of preparation of professors. The study carried out the following tasks: the concept of competitive position and its characteristics has been examined; the main factors influencing the competitive position of higher education institutions have been identified; the necessity for quality personnel management to improve the preparation of professors has been established; the issue of burnout as a key issue in the work of university staff has been addressed; the effectiveness of the wellbeing concept and the necessity to apply it as an integral part of the personnel management process to improve the competitive position of universities has been proven. The scientific novelty of the work consists in the analysis of individual factors of competitive position – the quality of education and the level of preparation of professors, the identification of the importance of personnel management in improving the performance of these factors, In addition, recommendations have been made to introduce the concept of wellbeing and to diagnose burnout among teachers in order to strengthen the competitive position of universities

Document archiving is very important in any large educational institution, as they contain information that is critical and affects quality management as well as knowledge management. The purpose of knowledge management and information systems is to organize the intellectual capital of the universities in a formally structured way for easy use and help managers make better decisions in all areas. Thus, the sources of competitive advantage in universities derive from intellectual capital and innovations. In addition, the path to a competitive advantage comes from the ability to manage knowledge to create quality of knowledge. Quality and knowledge are good indicators with which to measure a university’s overall competitiveness. This research illustrates the importance of knowledge management in universities and the role of the Information Technology (IT) in facilitating, sharing and accelerating growth of knowledge, in addition to improving the quality of education level in the university. The research also describes both the conceptual and the empirical frame work of a Quality management automated system. We expect this approach to noticeably reduce the cost in the faculties in the University of Jordan, and prevent all the disadvantage of the current situation and improve the quality of education.
