ELCINA Center for Knowledge Management
About ELCINA CKM
Self-empowerment has been the
cornerstone of ELCINA’s activities for enhancing competitiveness
of industry. To achieve this end, ELCINA has been conducting
seminars, workshops and training programs on contemporary
management systems and emerging technologies which confront the
electronics industry and need to be mastered. The focus has been
on quality systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and Six Sigma,
Management Systems such as the EICC and Environmental
Legislation (RoHS, WEEE, EuP…) which has become a major concern
due to global warming which is a threat to our very existence.
The need for a
Centre for Knowledge Management (CKM) was felt due to the
proliferation of these management and quality systems,
standards, tools as well as global legislation which is becoming
an insurmountable and expensive challenge to overcome. The
industry is faced with questions regarding which system to
adopt, who are the right trainers, how to manage the cost of
these systems and how to imbibe and implement this knowledge
effectively ? The CKM seeks to provide an answer to these
intractable questions as a friend of the industry.
The CKM is an entity which guides
and empowers industry to focus on the right management and
quality tools enabling it to produce environmentally friendly
high quality products at the lowest cost using relevant
technology for competitiveness.
