Synopsis

Information is fast becoming an organisation's most valuable resource.
The  effective  management  of  information  can  therefore  give   an
organisation  a  competitive  edge. This  unit  focuses  on  effective
methods  of obtaining, processing, storing and disseminating data  and
information.  The  communications component of  the  unit  strives  to
ensure  that the information initiated within the organisation  is  of
high quality. The study of an integrated software package helps ensure
that the presentation and manipulation of data/information assists  in
providing the 'information advantage'.
