| Summary, etc. |
The University of Manchester has been involved in the training and professional development of public administrators and managers from developing countries since 1958. One notable feature has been a pragmatic and experience-based approach in contrast to the more theoretical and technocratic approach common in North American institutions. Another has been the level of concern for the personal well-being of students in addition to their professional development. While the latter tradition has been largely maintained, the former has been enhanced in recent years by IDPM's substantial new focus on research and research-based training. Although the Institute has survived and prospered until now on its reputation for high-quality training and development programmes, current trends in numbers suggest the need for new initiatives. One tradition which it is hoped will be maintained is the emphasis in both research and training on critical enquiry and creative thinking, and a willingness to challenge assumptions and orthodoxies. This is an enduring and universal role for a university institution. - Reproduced |
