Corporate Education
Civilization has entered the Information Age, where business is knowledge-driven. Industries whose product lines either provide knowledge (e.g., software, information technology, and biotechnology) or process knowledge (e.g., telecommunications, banking, and advertising) place an increasing emphasis on speed, flexibility, technical expertise, and innovation. Consequently, it is imperative to the survival of any business organization to continually upgrade the knowledge base and skill levels of its work force in order to keep up with the ever-changing demands of the global marketplace and advances in technology.
A corporation's future is determined largely by its involvement in the development of its intellectual resources. Enterprises are growing and
expanding the education segment of their business activity, realizing that without this input, they will quickly lose their competitive edge in a highly competitive global economy. Not only is continuing education vital to the future success of any organization; it is of equal importance that employees remain adaptable and agile learners in order to profit personally and professionally from available opportunities generated by this new economy. Investing in the right program, for the right people, at the right time will continue to be a challenge for businesses as they strategically attempt to capitalize on the vast opportunities available to them in the twenty-first century.
