When Elizabeth Serpell’s son David had to undergo hand surgery at just ten months because of an unknown condition called ‘symbrachydactyly’, she was inspired to help people in similar situations find help more easily in the confusing, jargon-heavy world of hand differences. Back in 2000, she could never have imagined that a set of Google online tools available through the Google for Non-profits program would become one of her most powerful tools. Fast forward to 2017, and thanks to digital tools including Google Drive, Google Ad Grants and YouTube for Non-profits, Ms Serpell’s Aussie Hands Foundation is reaching out to more children and adults with hand differences than ever before.Posted on 18/09/2017 by

The wave of hype surrounding big data and the information age has come and gone. Your organisation has started collecting data, perhaps lots of it. The problem you now face is how to make sense of that data and turn it into knowledge that can help you achieve your mission. What are the opportunities, the risks and the unseen patterns that could fundamentally change the way you work, and how effective that work is? Knowledge architecture is the key to using your data in a more connected way. It provides a framework for building systems that generate context for your data, allowing for better decision-making across your entire organisation. It reduces complexity, unlocks insight, shares experience and gives rise to innovation, in a way that supports your people to do better work. This will be a non-technical presentation, explaining the benefits that knowledge architecture can bring and offering practical ideas on how to get started Course Outcomes: The presentation will explore the following ideas: What is knowledge architecture and where did the idea originate? What are the benefits of implementing it? What are the costs associated with not implementing it? How does an organisation get started? What are some examples of implementation? Audience This webinar is suitable for any organisation looking to make better use of their data. The content is not specific to any product vendor, and no prior technical knowledge is required. Not available on this date and time? Register anyway! All webinar registrants will receive a full recording and the slides after the webinar has been presented. Terry Franklin I have been involved in building information management and knowledge systems for almost 15 years, both within the digital media company that I helped found and now as an independent consultant.

All Australian organisations have a legal responsibility to ensure the safety of people in their care. By keeping a constant watch on employee or volunteer accreditation status, Oho is playing a key role in strengthening the protection of children and vulnerable people in Australian communities.
