The purposeof the study is to develop an approach to improve information support for the development of the contents of higher education programs and teaching methodological materials. The system of higher education faces the challenges of supporting the development of the digital economy through training and research. Creating the appropriate content of education becomes a difficult task with the high rate of development of digital technologies and methods to use them. Now, in smart learning, the technical aspects of the organization of the educational process often overshadow aspects, related to the methodology or content of smart learning. However, the issues of the content of education become most relevant. Research in the field of knowledge management remain relevant because, the more perfect the technologies become, that notice the algorithmized work of specialists, the higher the value of creativity for society and the economy.Materials and methodsof research include discourse analysis of domestic and foreign scientific sources devoted to the issues of smart education and knowledge management, the systematization of the material. Methodological basis for developing an approach to improve information support is the methods and technologies of the theory of knowledge management.The resultsof the research show that the need for the development of the digital economy places high demands not only for technologies, but also primarily on the competencies for their use. The logic of IT development in education indicates that there is a gradual change in the stages of informatization: from distance education technologies to e-learning and then to smart learning. Each stage of the informatization of education allows solving the problems that are important for the economy and society. There are the factors, influencing the formation of requirements for the content of educational programs: technological, economic, social and geopolitical. The following requirements of smart training for the content of educational programs are revealed: actual information and tasks in the training course; opportunities for independent cognitive, research and project activities of students; distributed information system of smart learning; integration of the educational environment with professional communities; individualization of the content of training.The conclusion.Technologies and methods of knowledge management can provide the necessary level of speed and quality of development of educational materials. The article describes the knowledge management system, which through the knowledge base, communities and co-creation tools, ensures the relevance of the developed content and fills the smart learning with the necessary content.

A R&I&i process for a knowledge management system development is presented. It transforms different institutions experiences into organisational knowledge applicable to an entire sector, the higher education one specifically. The knowledge management system allows classifying, organising, distributing and facilitating the application of the knowledge generated by the faculty. A study, with more than 1000 system users, reflects that the system helps to the faculty in the way they perform educational innovation activities. The supported model integrates both Nonaka's epistemological and ontological spirals. This allows defining ontologies and used them in order to transform the individual knowledge into organisational one. The knowledge management system encapsulates complex logic expressions and ontologies management, making easy for the users obtaining successful results that may organise in their own way, becoming a powerful knowledge management process that combines epistemological and ontological knowledge spirals to convert individual experiences in educational innovation into organisational knowledge in the higher education sector.

With digital transformation and progress in science, developing process capabilities with limited resources has gained immense importance for higher education institutions. To provide the highest quality education services and manage the information and knowledge management processes, appropriate strategies, and related key performance management factors must be defined efficiently. In the literature, numerous models and tools have been proposed to measure knowledge management capabilities (Mohapatra et al., 2016; Imran et al., 2017; Dayan et al., 2017; Trivella et al., 2015). This chapter aims to develop a better understanding of the relationship between knowledge management processes and propose an assessment model of knowledge management system for higher education institutions to measure knowledge resources and their capabilities. To do so, the knowledge management system is identified by four main attributes (People, Processes, Technology and Culture) and each attribute is comprehensively analysed in a dedicated section.

IGraciass is an integrated academic and non-academic management information system from the Telkom Education Foundation (YPT). Based on the vision and mission, the strategy and tagline of the Telkom Education Foundation is "The Leader of ICT Education Provider" and the spirit of digital transformation for Indonesia, I-Graciass must be adopted and implemented in all higher education institutions (lemdikti) under the auspices. The YPT. However, the facts on the ground the adoption and implementation process of I[1]Graciass in each of these higher education institutions are not easy matters. Many features, ease of use of technology and the system interface needed to access the system are important factors in the success of the system. For this reason, this research was conducted with the aim of facilitating the adoption process of IGraciass in all higher education institutions of the Telkom Education Foundation (YPT) according to the respective needs of the educational institutions under the auspices of YPT. This research was carried out using the mixing method both qualitatively and quantitatively, then the researcher also developed a qualitative research instrument to conduct a survey of the users to determine which channels were effective in the process of transferring knowledge. The results show that to minimize the risk of failure in adopting a knowledge management system, companies need to select a system based on the functional, non-functional and transition requirements for the system, as well as the strength and capacity of the organization.

Many research institutions have been developing their knowledge management systems (KMS). This process may be facilitated if the existing sci-tech libraries are taken as basic element of this system, while the libraries’ task will be to transform itself from the institution providing information support into a knowledge managing entity. Today the structure of sci-tech libraries comprises the relevant book and journal collections, functioning electronic library systems and in-house digital collections of external and their own resources. Merging the traditional and electronic libraries into knowledge management system will produce a synergetic effect. Managing in-house databases, sci-tech libraries are potentially able to manage sci-tech, intellectual products and intellectual property which makes a functional KMS fragment. Managing both external and in-house scholarly and information resources, building single information space on organizational intranet-portal, perfectly chosen software — all these make the main conditions of successful incorporation of sci-tech libraries in the knowledge management system.

Today in a rapidly changing competitive environment each university faces the need to constantly transform the knowledge and information management system, to respond quickly, to predict and to apply new forms of change management that determine managerial innovations and their efficiency. Conceptual approaches and practical experience of the knowledge and information management system formation and functioning at a modern university have been studied in the article. The purpose of the article is to highlight the theoretical foundations of the knowledge management system formation and to compare the experience in organizing the process of knowledge and information management at leading foreign higher educational institutions. Based on the analysis of the models and the practical implementation of knowledge and information management, the author's vision of important components in the knowledge management system at modern educational institutions has been suggested. Taking into account the active use of the latest information and communication technologies in higher education systems of the majority of the world’s countries, the importance of their application in the educational activities of participants in the educational process and in managerial activities of the administrative staff at universities has been stressed. This will optimize knowledge and information management at universities and will contribute to improving higher education quality, creating a competitive advantage in the market of educational services. The practical importance of knowledge and information management at university lies in the fact that the transfer of accumulated knowledge is aimed at the formation of competitive specialists, and in the fact that generation of new knowledge multiplies intellectual capital, provides competitive advantages and increases the competitiveness of the economy and society of any country.
