Delivery of Training Programmes: Changing Design

Date
1998-03-25Abstract
With a few exceptions, education, as it is currently practised, has undergone little change from the traditions of some nine centuries ago.

This presentation will attempt to look at the reasons behind the clamour and consider the requirements for, as well as the response of, the academic and training communities to the change.
