Welcome
The KnowledgeBase (KB) is a platform for easily creating, displaying, sharing, and managing web-based knowledge documents. It is designed to provide constituents within the University of Wisconsin-Madison and other institutions of higher education with a central location for storing and maintaining knowledge. The KnowledgeBase empowers end users to easily locate information for themselves online. It also allows partners to create, categorize, and maintain that knowledge easily. The KB contains a wide variety of searchable information, including technical documents, directions, policies, and procedures.
The KB team provides support, training, guidance, and consultation for administrators and editors. You can reach us at kb-team@doit.wisc.edu. We also encourage all editors and admins of the KnowledgeBase to join our KB Advisory Group.
