Abstract:

Examines the influence of intra-European co-operation on a regional response to human resource development and, in particular, to graduate placement in small firms. Discusses the attitudes and cultural differences to enterprise of Welsh and non-Welsh speakers. Identifies common features of placement programmes compared with other entrepreneurship training courses, and the specialist skills to give the individual and the firm a competitive advantage. Highlights the crucial requirement in graduate placement to balance the needs of the graduate, the small firm, the funding agency and the training organization.
