- Summary:
-
A major objective of this study was to determine how Research and Development (R&D) managers, executives, training directors, and academic administrators, perceive the future demand for continuing education in R&D as well as what new institutional arrangements, program innovations, and policy changes they believe will be necessary to meet future demands. Other objectives were to determine how such decision-makers view the current state of continuing education in the United States and how it is related to R&D. Interview schedules were developed that included provisional scenarios of projected changing needs for continuing education of scientists and engineers with different interview schedules developed for three relevant groups of decision-makers. Conclusions and recommendations as well as questionnaires are presented in this final report. (Author/DS)
