Identified the core knowledge within technology fields including Information Systems (IS) field. Explained the relationships between different knowledge areas. Recognized the importance of lifelong learning and staying updated with emerging technologies. Purpose This unit provides a framework for the development, support, and updating of bachelors-degree programs in the computing discipline of Information Systems (IS). Graduates of such programs should be able to understand a IS-related learning competencies and eventually pursue a career in the IS field in an entry-level position. These guidelines will assist colleges in educating potential IS workers in technical computing competencies, as well as necessary workplace skills. Graduates of programs crafted from these guidelines should be able to: Apply computing skills to solve problems within the context of business systems; Communicate effectively within an organization; Work productively in team and individual settings; Demonstrate professionalism and ethical behavior; and Adapt to emerging technologies and new environments. Ever thought how Information Systems can be taught in other universities? It all started in a Body of Knowledge framework. Body of Knowledge Body of knowledge (BOK) refers to the core teachings and skills required to work in a particular field or industry. The body of knowledge (BOK) is usually defined by professional associations or societies. Members of the profession outline what is needed to do their jobs and that forms the foundation for the curriculum of most professional programs or designations. People seeking to enter the profession must display their mastery of the body of knowledge in order to receive accreditation that enables them to practice these skills. Candidates usually demonstrate their mastery of the body of knowledge by passing rigorous examinations. These exams can be a single session or the accreditation can be done level by level, requiring a person to practice at a particular level for a set amount of time before challenging the next level. A body of knowledge (BOK or BoK) is the complete set of concepts, terms and activities that make up a professional domain, as defined by the relevant learned society or professional association. It is a type of knowledge representation by any knowledge organization.  In West Visayas State University, we used ACM Body of Knowledge for BS in Information Systems (IS) Get to know ACM The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the First Society of Computing, has supported for many years curriculum development and improvement. In 1993, the ACM Two-Year College Education Committee (ACM TYCEC) released its curriculum guidelines entitled Computing for Information Processing (CIP), as part of a four-volume set of curricular guidelines directed specifically to the bachelors-degree granting institutions. The CIP report outlined a collection of knowledge units with associated depth indicators that were organized into sample courses. The IS 2002 Model Curriculum and Guidelines for Undergraduate Degree Programs in Information Systems, a joint production of the ACM, the Association for Information Systems (AIS), and the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP), was released in 2002 and was targeted to baccalaureate programs. In 2003, the ACM TYCEC organized a task force to produce a new information systems report for the two-year colleges, as both an update to the 1993 CIP report and a bridge to the IS 2002 report. Walkthrough IS Body of Knowledge (ACM) Organizatio Decision Organizational Risk Mgmt. n Theory Theory Behavior Information Managing Legal and Professionalism Sys.
