University HRD Programs. [Concurrent Symposium Session at AHRD Annual Conference, 1997.]
This document contains three papers from a symposium on university HRD (human resource development) programs. A survey of 20 multinational corporations reported in "Determining the Labor Demand and Development Needs of HR/HRD Professionals in China" (William J. Rothwell) finds the demand for HR generalists and specialists in China is expected to increase significantly in the next 5 years. "New Forms of Education of Professionals for Vocational Education and Training" (Graham Attwell) describes a European Commission project to develop new occupational profiles and a new master's program for vocational education teachers, planners, and trainers. "Theory to Practice to Theory: Results of Applying a Customer Driven Continuous Improvement Process to an HRD Academic Program" (Wendy E. A. Ruona, Roger F. Miller) discusses the application of a process improvement model to three customer groups: business leaders, HRD scholars, and HRD students. (KC)
