§ Mr. Maudeasked the Minister of Education what steps are being taken to provide systematic training for teachers of management studies in technical colleges, as recommended by the United Kingdom Advisory Council on Education for Management.
§ Sir E. BoyleThe Department of Management Studies at the Polytechnic, Regent Street, is to provide a series of 10-week full-time courses for teachers of management starting in May. The courses will be run in conjunction with the Polytechnic's programme of research into management teaching methods which is financed jointly by my Department and the Foundation for Management Education. These are intended primarily for in-service training of teachers of management studies in technical colleges but will also be suitable for new recruits to management teaching. Some places will also be available for management teachers from other educational institutions and for persons engaged in management training in industry.
