Training Needs


Book Description

This monograph outlines a new approach to the assessment and monitoring of training needs in developing countries and gives examples of how the approach can be applied in practice. It argues that, as conventional manpower planning techniques are primarily concerned with forecasting manpower requirements, they do not give adequate guidance for the planning of vocational training.
