Byrom, John; Parker, Cathy; Harris, John
Education + Training, v44 n8-9 p413-20 2002
Secondary analysis of data from a study of skill needs in the British independent retail sector suggests there is justification for focusing on higher-level training in three areas: building and sustaining competitive advantage, e-commerce, and retail operations. These areas are the core modules in a distance learning initiative that resulted from the study. (Contains 39 references.) (SK)
