Ottawa: Industry Canada, 1995. Occasional paper, No.13. "This paper focuses on... management education, training and development. It examines the contention that there are worrisome deficiencies in management skills in Canada. After briefly describing the context within which this challenge to competitiveness arises, the question of adequacy is addressed. Evidence that suggests deficiency is presented, and the particular problems of small- and medium-sized enterprises are highlighted. The hypotheses that Canada lacks a training culture and that management development is not an integral part of doing business in Canada, are examined." --Introduction and outline. 1, record 4, English, - Management%20Skills%20Development%20in%20Canada

Ottawa : Industrie Canada, 1995. Document hors série, no. 13. «Dans notre étude, nous mettons l'accent sur l'un des segments du système d’acquisition du savoir, c'est-à-dire l'enseignement, la formation et le perfectionnement des cadres. On y examine l'assertion à l'effet qu'il existe des lacunes inquiétantes au niveau des compétences des cadres au Canada. Après une brève description du contexte à l'intérieur duquel se pose ce défi à la compétitivité de l'économie, nous nous penchons sur la question du caractère adéquat des services disponibles. Nous faisons état de données qui donnent à penser que des lacunes existent et nous mettons en relief les problèmes spéciaux auxquels sont confrontées les petites et les moyennes entreprises. Nous examinons les hypothèses selon lesquelles le Canada ne possède pas une culture de la formation et que le perfectionnement des cadres ne fait pas partie intégrante du processus de conduite des affaires au Canada. »--Introduction et aperçu de l'étude. 1, record 4, French, - Le%20perfectionnement%20des%20comp%C3%A9tences%20des%20cadres%20au%20Canada
