  2. Business Networking and strategic partnership in a knowledge based economy

  3. Innovation Management

  4. Change management and organisational learning in SMEs

  5. Informal and Formal Protection (protecting know-how).

The firms presented on the DVDs represent the entire SME sector, ranging from firms with fewer than 5 employees to those with over 150.

The firms also broadly represent operations in various sub-areas. These include firms providing services from metal refining to consultancy.

The company cases are very close to the ‘coalface’ in nature being profiles of genuine companies and genuine operations.

To us, they represent an interesting package complementing the MAC-SSIIM theoretical training materials.

DVDs have been designed so that access to a specific sequence to illustrate a case or a key point is very easy and direct.

The e-learning platform solution implemented by MAC-SSIIM also provides added-value facility in the same spirit of supporting the Learner, the trainer of the Project Leader in charge of implementing these issues in an organisation.

 

Even though this Introduction focuses on companies as the target group for the MAC-SSIIM training programme, the material can also be used as part of the curriculum of educational institutions, such as universities and polytechnics.

MAC-SSIIM can simply sell these training materials and facilities

or accompany you through out your strategy and project to protect your know-how.
