The Standards Institution of Israel published the first Knowledge Management standard. A knowledge management company underwent the certification process successfully.

The standard represents the 'compass' of Knowledge Management; the manager will know the definition of the conduct of an organization "perfectly". Its chapters, as a result, represent aspects and dimensions that should be taken into consideration when diagnosing the state of the organization, specifically in the field of Knowledge Management.

One of the projects initiated by KMGN is the ISO30401 implementation, which aims to improve the level of KM in organizations worldwide. The outcome of this project is a toolbox including four toolkits: Starters, Compass, Advance, and Resources. These toolkits aim to introduce and mediate the language of ISO to KMers, help organizations learn where to invest in excelling, enable organizations with excellent KM to win certification efficiently and effectively and provide additional resources to supplement the process. The next stage is the actual implementation of ISO30401 implementation in organizations based on the infrastructure prepared. The ultimate goal is to bring prosperity to the world through better KM in organizations and society.

This post presents a free online toolbox consisting of four toolkits, created by KMers from 12 countries and five continents, to assist organizations in their journey to ISO30401 certification. The toolbox includes a Starter toolkit, Compass toolkit, Advanced toolkit, and Resource toolkit, to help organizations audit their knowledge management practices, benchmark themselves to the industry, and prepare an excellent-leveled KM program with minimal effort. The toolbox is intended to help organizations overcome the language barrier that is preventing them from adopting the ISO30401 standard and achieving KM excellence.
