A flexible workforce for the modern economy: the role of education and training

Abstract

This special issue of Education + Training looks at ways of keeping the workforce up to date and adaptable, and so capable of achieving the Government’s aims. It contains a number of précised articles exploring the relationship between employers and the world of education. It pays particular attention to the ways in which business – particularly UK business – is using education. Usual issues of Education + Training contain substantive, reflective, research‐based articles which have been subject to peer review. This special issue, in contrast, is case‐study oriented, containing vignettes of best practice.
