Wiki websites
Wiki websites for managing and communicating information and knowledge
A wiki is a collaborative website which enables users, with permission, to edit and discuss content online. Wikis have had high levels of adoption in the business
and research community because they are so easy to setup and use.
Wikis are an easy and inexpensive way for your organisation to get online and to make your valuable information accessible to your community of practice.
We can set you up with either a basic wiki or a fully customised wiki and provide you with training and support.
Wikis are commonly used for a wide variety of purposes including communication, documentation, knowledge bases, project management, tacit knowledge, and meeting management.
EKSA has developed a number of wikis for communicating a variety of information associated with environmental management. See some examples below.
