Evolving Corporate Education Strategies for Developing Countries: The Role of Universities presents the theories and opportunities for integrating corporate education into traditional universities as well as highlighting the professional development in different subject areas. This book provides relevant research important for policy makers, practitioners and scholars of higher education.
