Kuwait holds forum on knowledge management

KUWAIT, Dec 24 (KUNA) -- Kuwait's Civil Service Commission (CSC) organized its annual forum on the topic of "knowledge management" here Wednesday.
Delivering a keynote speech during the inaugural session of the third forum, CSC's Assistant Undersecretary for Administrative Development Zaid Al-Nuwaif hailed this year's topic for the meeting, which came at a time when as the entire world was locked in diverse financial and economic crises.
The one-day form shows the CSC's keenness on meeting, on a regular basis, with officials of administrative development and training, he said.
Those officials are always required to find everything new and useful in the development of administrative methods in both public and private sectors so "knowledge management" was handpicked as the topic of this year's forum, he added.
The key role of public administrative development and training departments is to devise development blueprints and programs in light of a set of general goals and policies, Al-Nuwaif said.
For his part, Advisor to CSC's Administrative Development Department Dr. Tareq Al-Rayyis said several significant development plans had been worked out this year.
Many training programs and courses have also been organized by the department this year, he added.
Representatives from several public and private agencies were present during the one-day meeting, which was held under the aegis of CSC Chairman Abdulaziz al-Zabin. (end) akw.zak.mt KUNA 241408 Dec 08NNNN
