Publisher's Synopsis
With Britain's training schemes going through considerable change, this is an overview of the impact and success of one of the most wide-ranging government schemes of the last 20 years.;It surveys the background to the MSC and analyzes its effect upon particular sections of the community. The relations between the MSC and secondary schools, further education, local authorities, the churches, the voluntary sector, employers and trade unions are looked at in detail. Many of the contributors, who include Bill Speirs of the STUC, Jim Wright, formerly a leading training manager in industry, Tom Burness a college principal, and the Reverend Donald Moss of the Church of Scotland, came into contact with the MSC through their work. Others are academics who have been researching the MSC for number of years.
