Knowledge, Learning, Community
In the 1990s the need for workplace training was greater than ever before. So one would expect an increase in participation in workplace training. But in fact, a drop occurred; this study tries to find the reasons why. It only partly succeeds: it identifies an overall positive trend, counterbalanced by a negative participation among men. The author speculates that this may be due to the rise of informal training as a means of acquiring knowledge. Good call, I'd say. The link is to an HTML page; the full study is in PDF format.
