The tension between institutional needs and those of the individual has rarely been higher. Increasing demands on institutions to deliver set targets and value for money whilst adhering to set expectations and external constraints has led to an erosion of the notion of staff development. This book looks at how the conflict between the two outlooks emerges and what can be done to overcome it. Based on empirical evidence, the authors reveal what is happening in a range of institutions and explore the tensions between the personal needs of the individual and the demands of managers. They examine the reasons behind the conflict and discuss what measures can be taken to overcome it. The book will provide a central text on an important but relatively neglected subject of interest to all engaged in the profession.

This book focuses on strategic staff development in higher education, a sector in which it has been largely viewed as an operational activity with little organizational relevance. The book demonstrates how staff development needs to be based on modern theories of 'organizational learning', aligning itself with institutional and departmental needs as well as the wants and needs of individual staff.

"Institutions of higher education are currently having to react speedily and creatively to a range of demands connected with education for intending and already qualified professionals. In addition to traditional requirements for continuous professional development and updating, there is a growing awareness of skills needs, interprofessional cooperation, and innovative learning styles. This volume examines the context, development and management of a portfolio of professional courses. It draws out a number of practical case studies from one institution, Oxford Polytechnic, and emphasizes the necessity of a planned institutional framework including an overarching strategy for professional education. The overall design of the book identifies key issues and objectives and shows in practical ways how institutions can act to meet them. It should be of interest to those involved in the development and management of professional courses at both the course and departmental/institutional levels, as well as to others with a broad interest in issues of professional practice."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The goal of this research was to determine the balance of a collaborative learning relationship between an institution and its employees. A review of the literature examined learning-centered theory to determine the necessary tenets of a learning-centered professional staff development program. In addition, various staff development components were examined to ascertain their role in a learning-centered program. The literature findings guided this research to conduct a study to determine if relationships existed between employees' perception of climate and two variables: (a) employees' locus of control and (b) employees' job satisfaction. Additionally, the three factors were assessed together in a linear regression to determine what percentage of variance could be accounted for by each of the factors. The extent to which the institution had sufficiently set the stage for learning to take place was determined by assessing the institution's climate utilizing the PACE©. Locus of control and job satisfaction were two audience components utilized to determine appropriate program selection. Findings from the correlation procedures revealed a moderate relationship between both the employees' locus of control and their job satisfaction and their perception of the climate. A multiple regression revealed that 43% of an employee's climate perception could be accounted for by locus of control and job satisfaction. Results of this study indicated that locus of control and job satisfaction were two factors that an institution needs to consider with regards to their staff prior to embarking on a staff development program or in re-designing an existing program. In addition, the results indicated the necessity in establishing a baseline climate perception to ascertain if the environment was conducive to staff learning. Lastly, an institution needs to be willing to inquire of its staff as to their needs and preferred learning delivery methods. By examining itself objectively, and engaging workers in a collaborative learning process, an institution can begin to establish the foundation for a learning centered staff development program.

This book came about as a result of many years of personal commitment to continuing professional development. A key message in this book is that each one of us needs to take personal responsibility for our own competence and career development - and to a very high degree, as well as continually. Another message is that organisations need to redefine the role of managers in a fundamental way if CPD is to be successful. Thirdly, the providers of CPD need to rethink their approach, so that the learners are best able to relate their learning to specific competence and career development objectives. Fourthly, the professional institutions need to do as much as possible to learn from each other's successes and good ideas
