The age of customised business courses
I'm not so sure whether such a trend is good or not. Sure, it gives a focus and builds knowledge about a particular industry, but as we HR specialists are finding out, the growth then becomes limited to the function/industry. What do you think?

A very good step towards skill development within a Corporation. This also enhances efforts towards Community Building and Alumini Associations.The BPO Sector should adopt similar models and upgrade Manpower Skills for long term retention.
