Middle-level manpower requirements and training needs in African countries

Abstract

The main result of this study has been to ventilate some of the hitherto unanswered or ignored questions concerning middle-level manpower- the nature of the concept, tile present stock, the future requirements and training needs. It cannot be pretended -that very much light has been thrown on many of the issues which were raised at the beginning of the study, mainly due to the scarcity of information, and the limited comparability of most of what is available. Nevertheless, if it has been possible to indicate source of the areas whore further study is required as a prelude to more comprehensive policy formulation for the satisfaction of middle-level manpower needs, this in itself is a useful although limited step.
