Abstract

Based on a background paper on the same subject, written on invitation by the World Bank, as a contribution to a general policy review on vocational and technical education and training. Draws primarily on the practical experience of the author and several of his colleagues in the International Training Service during the period 1961‐87 and on his personal consultancy activities since 1987 in a wide range of developing countries in addition to the UK. Pursues the following main themes: practical guidelines for developing enterprise training strategies and policies; the role and training of the enterprise trainer and the industry level training adviser; criteria for determining the location of training and the resources needed for it inside and outside the enterprise; financing training and measuring its results; and the special problems of training in the small enterprise. Focuses throughout on case examples and practical experience rather than on other people’s theories.
