The integration of Information Systems Shared Services Center with E-Learning for Sharing Knowledge Capabilities

Continuous learning became a fundamental element in any organization as a tool for managing development, sustainability and innovation from knowledge capabilities. In this paper, we start by describing the combination of two phenomenon’, Shared Service Center (SSC) and E-Learning that expand the knowledge capabilities. Then, we produce a conceptual model for developing a continuous learning organization. This model conceptualizes and integrates SSC as managing the organizational knowledge and memory repository and E-Learning as the enhancer for a pull and push communication process. Then, from the conceptual model, we mathematically deduct a Δ (Delta) factor. This factor presents characteristics that allow its use for determining the viability of the continuous learning from sharing knowledge capabilities. © 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
