+===== What is an Informateer? =====
-</WRAP>
-</WRAP>
+An ”Informateer" is an individual who combines information and expertise to conceive, design, and implement innovative solutions and experiences that involve the effective use of information, data, and knowledge. Informateers specialize in creating information-rich environments, systems, or technologies that facilitate learning, decision-making, and problem-solving, often with a focus on delivering valuable insights and solutions to individuals or organizations. This term underscores the fusion of creative thinking and specialized skills in a specific domain, in this case, the realm of information and data management. Informateers may work in fields such as data science, knowledge management, information architecture, or information technology, where they harness their imaginative and technical abilities to enhance information-driven experiences and outcomes.
