TRIPARTITISM as it affects YTS

COLIN TAYLOR (A twenty‐two years old student who served a work experience placement with the Rubber and Plastics Processing ITB in 1982. He recently graduated with a degree in Public Administration from Leicester Polytechnic. As part of his final year assessment he prepared a 10,000 dissertation which consisted of a critique of the NTI and the role of the MSC in its development. This article is a condensed version of that thesis and records his personal disaffection with NTI. We include it because it serves to highlight the fact that the serious sources of criticism of MSC are directed towards its political aspects, though these have not emerged outside the academic world where they are now gathering strength)

Abstract

The Historical Perspective: Post‐war industrial training policy in Britain had been characterised by a laissez‐faire approach involving minimal government intervention, until the report of the Carr Committee in 1958. Although some ad hoc provision existed (Government Training Centres, Training Within Industry etc) the prevailing attitude was encapsulated in this report when it stated that the responsibility of industrial training should rest firmly with industry.
