Knowledge and knowing are considered as the two main infrastructures in the field of educational affairs and the establishment of knowledge-based systems. From another perspective, tacit and explicit knowledge and the relationship between them are considered as a basis for the historical root of the application of knowledge management in education. The relationship between different types of knowledge leads to the development of individual, group and organizational knowledge. The systematic and internal relationships between educational fields, especially higher education and the knowledge management process can be analyzed by explaining the main elements of education and the knowledge management cycle. In rooting out these findings, three international authorized and valid conceptual models, including Knowledge and Knowledge Matrix, SECI conceptual model and Knowledge Management Framework for Teaching Universities have been interpreted.

The process of adaptation and knowledge exchange as the main components of knowledge management is fully related to the goals of educational affairs in knowledge-based empowerment and knowledge enhancement of all stakeholders in the field of education. Thus, in any knowledge dissemination program, the content of education, that is, knowledge and how to transfer it through knowledge management mechanisms should be taken into account for the learner as the end user.
