Education is Everybody's Business: a Case for a Business Model for Public Educational Services Fred Bedell

The observation of critical importance of education to the productivity and competitiveness of business and the problems and issues facing the country in public educational services is of national concern, particularly since these same issues that were prevalent in 1987 still exist today. To address these issues and problems this book examines areas of national education policies, programs, practices and resources. It focuses on the variety of stakeholders in the education environment as to their interests and involvement which often conflicts with sound education al policies and practices. Suggestions are offered to provide insights and recommendations to address the issues and concerns in the hope that some solutions will be enacted.
