Priorities in training

Abstract

The present economic situation and the Government emphasis on training pose the question: is the effort on training being directed for maximum return? Since training really started getting off the ground ten years ago, considerable strides have been made. The experienced human resource manager now has a variety of techniques available backed by proven research findings. Nevertheless, it appears that Government direction does not always take account of this expertise when planning manpower strategies. This article suggests an approach which takes into account not only the current state of training, but also Britain's position in the world and economic situation.
