Description
Summary:In the education industry, organizations must strive to optimize human and intellectual capital. Experience, knowledge, and teaching style can be part of the capital which needs to be organized in order to protect the “organizational memory”. Having students who have been selected discretely, and the addition of many courses offered at preparatory center, academic management is the critical unit or key assets that will assist in the organization of the academic memory. Academic memories most of the time will reside with the owner.If memories are not being managed accordingly, the memories become wasted to the institution.Therefore, a lot of wasted memories occur due to retired staff, contract termination, and replacement or death. Hence, the aim of this study is to 1) identify the person in charge of memory for academic purposes,2) identify memories of INTEC and 3)propose an appropriate organizational memory framework or model for INTEC.Finally this study will be beneficial to researchers and practitioner who are interested in applying OM in an academic institution.
