The main purpose of the present study was to design and fit the optimal model of learning organization in education with emphasis on knowledge management. This study was conducted using consecutive exploratory design (qualitative and quantitative). In the qualitative phase, data was collected by in-depth interviews with 20 experts in the field of educational management and education managers of Education Department of Tehran, selected by theoretical sampling method. The research data was provided by the thematic analysis method, analyzed themes network and the conceptual model of network measurement of the learning organization in Education. The qualitative results indicated that the optimal model of learning organization in Education consisted of six comprehensive themes and in total of 259 basic themes has been theoretically saturated. In the quantitative phase using a researcher-made questionnaire tool which was based on basic themes of qualitative study, the data was collected from 226 managers and staff of Education Department of Tehran, selected by multistage cluster sampling. The quantitative section indicated that the empirical model of network measurement of learning organization in Education Department of Tehran has a quite optimal fit and the knowledge management dimension has the most significant contribution in evaluating the empirical model of the learning organization, compared to the other five dimensions. Upon results of thid research could be conclusion that em;hasising on knowledge management can help actualizing and developing organizations specially education. In other words, for recovering organizations performance and deferent institutes can laying on knowledge management developing in learning organizations.

This study is preliminary based on two main goals. One study on what has happen to Institutionalizing of knowledge management and secondly considering element for to Institutionalizing of knowledge management to a model. This study was conducted through Appling is on the basis of qualitative and grounded theory of research. For achieving such goals, we have used three different techniques: documentary method, focus group and interview. Statistical society of this study comprises faculty members of universities and talented expertise from related field. The focus group including 6 faculty members from universities and we selected 4 faculty members and two expertise in order to conduct deeply consideration through interviews. We have applied the purposive samling. In order to analyses data gained through interview we used Strauss method for coding the data that it was comprises of open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The findings show that Institutionalizing of knowledge management is faced with challenges that we point out 10 crucial challenges and the reason behind of such challenges are due to lack of appropriate organizational culture, lack of specialized bodies, insufficient managerial capabilities and inadequate infrastructures. Subsequently we could identify 3 different captions for Institutionalizing of knowledge management as follow: 1) management 2) organizational culture 3) infrastructure (human resources and supplies and equipment’s). Accordingly, we have provided subtitles for each caption. Such model can play a crucial role in Institutionalizing of knowledge management in Iranian universities. Based upon such model we develop a program for implementation of knowledge management.

The ever-increasing development of industry, information and technology in the world is moving forward at a fast pace. Countries seeking self-sufficiency and universal independence must prepare their country for sustainable entrepreneurship, production and employment, and human resources in the industry, in order to cope with the gap between existing skills and new skills. Under these conditions, we recognize the importance of the mission of universities that are active in the training of skilled entrepreneurs. Knowledge management in organizations, especially educational organizations, is an effective solution to this problem. This research, based on the Foundation's data strategy, studies the knowledge management strategy at the technical and vocational college.

The aim of this study was to test the relationship between knowledge management strategies (knowledge application, sharing and retrieval) with individual and organizational learning capacities in Tehran’s male secondary schools within 2014-2015 academic year. The research methodology was correlation. Participants were 235 male secondary school teachers who were selected by using cluster sampling method. Measures included knowledge management processes (cheng, 2012), individual and organizational learning capacities (Sallis & Jones, 2002). The Data were analyzed based on structural equation model (path analysis model) and by SPSS 19 and LISREL 8.8 software. The results showed that there was a positive relationship between knowledge sharing with individual learning capacity and organizational learning capacity. Meanwhile, knowledge application directly effects on the individual learning capacity while knowledge retrieval has an impact on organizational learning capacity. But no interaction relationship was established between individual learning capacity and the organizational one (mediator variables).
