Summary
Description
In contrast to such relatively accessible information, implicit knowledge is difficult to reveal, but it is still possible to record. It is generally feasible to convert implicit knowledge into explicit knowledge through a knowledge conversion processes generally referred to as ‘codification’ or ‘transformation’. The third type of knowledge, tacit knowledge, is the most difficult to recall and to articulate, and thus to transfer. Tacit knowledge cannot be completely explained, since it is wholly embodied in the individual, rooted in practice and experience, expressed through skilful execution, and transmitted through apprenticeship and training by watching and doing.

Description
Implicit knowledge can sometimes be difficult to recall and articulate but, when it is, it can be recorded in a document. Implicit knowledge is often gained through personal exposure to circumstances (for example, the working environment) or experiences (for example, packaging radioactive waste).
