No Yoga for Eric: Lifelong Learning from a Small Firm's Perspective.

Martin, Lynn M.

International Journal of Lifelong Education, v21 n2 p130-41 Mar-Apr 2002

A survey of 128 small businesses in England found that 84% of owners did not feel lifelong learning was right for their organization; 80% felt it was valid for their own development; and they did not recognize the value of nonwork-related learning. Key staff, however, saw learning as a continuous and vital process for their future development. (Contains 48 references.) (SK)
