Abstract
Examines recent changes in further education colleges and colleges’ greater responsiveness to the needs of employers and students. Explores the development of a model of responsiveness, the main ways in which responsiveness is changing and future directions for colleges. Concludes that colleges’ responsiveness to employer needs will continue to be influenced by financial and commercial decisions, and the needs of wider communities.
