The course and workshop bring about a fundamental change in the management approach of IT workers, a change towards the knowledge economy and a departure from quantitative metrics suitable for routine work. The course responds to new trends, especially to the fact that the value is in knowledge. For a long time, the existence of the knowledge worker remained hidden, as the main emphasis was placed on productivity, speed of response to requirements, completeness of tasks. Simply put, working in IT was seen as the work of a manual worker performing the tasks assigned to him. At the turn of the century, the existence of a fundamental difference between manual work and a knowledge worker (knowledge worker) was recognized, whose characteristics are the complexity of problems, their variability and the fact that most of the work activities are performed actively, autonomously, the work is creative and the main emphasis is not quantity, but quality. Participants will learn the main differences between quantitative and qualitative management, the characteristics of the work of a knowledge worker, the concept of Collaboration Experience and Collaboration Quality, the concept of analyzing the quality of a knowledge worker - the quality index of a knowledge worker - as a diametrically different concept from measuring productivity and quantitative KPIs. Course participants will gain knowledge of how to measure the quality of a knowledge worker and how to use the complementary quality metrics CLQ and CLX. An optional outcome of the course is an individual knowledge profile - SFIA skill profile - compiled by an accredited SFIA consultant.

After successfully passing the final test, graduates receive the Certification Managing Knowledge Worker Quality - CMKWQ certificate. It is an online exam.

Creating your own SFIA profile - online or in person - is included in the course price. The course without creating an SFIA profile costs 18 860 CZK
