Abstract:
An information management apparatus comprises a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of external apparatuses having learning functions, and a control unit configured to control the communication with the plurality of external apparatuses performed by the communication unit. The control unit, if supervisory data generated when a predetermined external apparatus executes a learning function is received from the predetermined external apparatus via the communication unit, selects, from among the plurality of external apparatuses, an external apparatus, other than the predetermined external apparatus, with which the supervisory data is to be shared, and performs control so that the supervisory data is transmitted to the selected external apparatus.
