a training primer Established training specialists are very familiar with the developments in industrial training which they initiated over the last decade in this country. However, the newcomer, seeking a broad introduction to the training function is often in a difficult position. While it is true that a wealth of information is now available to him, it is scattered in training journals, the Department of Employment and ITB publications, and in a limited number of specialist books. So far, what has been lacking is a basic and up‐to‐date account of training theory and practice: in other words — a training primer.
