Abstract: In this paper, a framework to facilitate development of knowledge management (KM) system for curriculum development process is suggested. It was validated through experts' opinions with thirty two experts. The components of the framework were supported by the experts by emphasizing their necessity and importance in the curriculum development process. Some model curricula and related guidelines were studied to identify components of good curriculum. The curriculum development process was studied through various models for curriculum development proposed by researchers and description of the process by researchers. By the analysis of these models and processes, the Phases in curriculum development process life cycle were identified. Use of knowledge management in business organizations and other disciplines was also studied. Based on all this, this researcher could identify components of a good KM system for curriculum development. This framework will help in implementing a KM system for curriculum development process. It will streamline the process, improve quality of curriculum, save time and efforts by using existing knowledge and avoid repetition of work.
