Higher Education: The Second Skills Foresight Report

It reviews evidence for the whole workforce, and specifically for the higher education workforce, drawing on data from the Labour Force Survey (2001), the IES/HESDA employer survey (staff, skills, training and development in 2001), and the IRS/UCEA employer survey (staff recruitment and retention, 2001).
