| dc.description.abstract | This presentation describes a collaborative distance education project between the University of the West Indies (UWI) and the Caribbean Labour Administration Centre (CLAC) which resulted in CLAC using the UWI Distance Teaching Enterprise (UWIDITE) network to offer a training course for labour administrators in the Caribbean region. In addition, UWI offered a one-year full-time certificate course in Labour Administration. Three different courses were offered by CLAC over three years--Labour Inspection, Employment Service Operations, and Conciliation Methods and Techniques. The presentation begins by providing background information on the 21 countries served by CLAC. It then addresses the need for training of labour administrators; CLAC's partnership with UWI and UWIDITE; the comparative cost of these distance courses and the traditional seminar format; and technical preparation for the use of UWIDITE. A recounting of some of the experiences of CLAC with distance education courses concludes the paper | |
