This paper presents an overview of the recorded state in terms of the capacity for introducing of an informatics system for knowledge management of an academic institution – the Faculty of Administration and Information Systems Management (FAISM), unit of the University of Bitola “St. KlimentOhridski”. It examines: the attitudes on knowledge and learning, the personal detectors on logistics - support to the system and the attitudes toward the working group - the organization, of all 40 employees, as well as the achievement motive of 112 active students at FAISM. The results indicated that the FAISM’ readiness for change in direction of increased sharing and use of the knowledge possessed is moderate, with limited awareness among the staff that the clear professional requirements, rules and standards previously set, are prerequisites for successful implementation and application of this system.
