Hoëvlak bestuursopleiding in Suider-Afrika - standpunte, probleme en geleenthede

Abstract

HIGH LEVEL TRAINING IN SOUTHERN AFRICA - VIEWPOINTS PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES Management training is of the utmost importance for the economic progress of Southern Africa. International surveys found that Business Schools will have to become more innovative in order to satisfy the changing needs for management training. According to a National Manpower Commission survey the interest of the South African busines sector in management training is disappointing. Taking the above results into account guidelines for the further development of the Graduate School of Management were developed. Some of the most important are: • More contact with the industry and more marketing orientation. • Necessity for the implementation of a system of accreditation in Southern Africa for organization involved in management training in order to maintain standards. • More contact with alumni. • More international contact.
