INDIGENOUS TRAINING FOR A CHANGING SOUTH AFRICA

Abstract

Discusses what the most important aspects of training must be in a changing South Africa, where inequality in skills between Blacks and Whites is enormous and cuts in university education have reduced training departments for librarianship. Cost‐effective training is the priority, skill‐based training, relevance and job‐relatedness are some of the factors mentioned, which are critical to the success of any training programme. To be effective training must be carefully thought out and reflect the needs of the participants, as well as the organization.
