FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

There is an urgent need for academics, education and training providers as well as policy makers to be aware of current thinking at the EC level on training policy. Moreover, the same economic imperatives which put women's training on the agenda have heightened interest in designing training which attracts women into mainstream provision. Feminising the Mainstream provides a critical overview and evaluates the potential role of the EC in perpetuating or breaking down gender segregation in the EC labour force. It draws upon feminist theoretical frameworks in assessing Equal Opportunitues policies and the role of training in the labour market. This book will appeal to those studying women's studies, business studies, social policy as well as to those professionals in training agencies, central and local government and managers.
