Implementing managing knowledge effectively practices in education represents one of the most effective approaches to achieving the principles of sustainable development and realising its positive effects on both society and the state.

The study’s findings indicate: A positive relationship between investment in human resources through managing knowledge effectively practices and the enhancement of education to support sustainable development; A positive association between managing knowledge effectively and employee motivation; A positive correlation between managing knowledge effectively and employee performance.
