    Notes: Interest in the total quality concept has been gaining considerablemomentum within North America. Total quality, which is founded on thebelief that organizations can succeed by meeting the needs of theircustomers, has traditionally been a concern of line management. However,specialists in the area of human and industrial relations have beenespousing some of the concepts touted by total quality converts for someyears. Participation by these individuals in the implementation of atotal quality approach can only help in this regard.

    Notes: As employers have recognized the potential impact of training schemes toincrease organizational productivity this had led to an expansion ofcompetence development programmes. Although one could reasonably expectthis increase to be accompanied by the introduction of sophisticatedtraining evaluation systems this has not occurred. Traditionalapproaches such as direct assessment of employee knowledge, attitudesand skills are still prevalent. Proposes an alternative evaluationmodel which draws on concepts associated with total quality management.The evaluation is extended to cover assessment of: employeesatisfaction; satisfaction of the employee's superior; persons to whomthe employee provides outputs; and the organization's externalcustomers. Describes application of the model during all phases of thetraining programme design through to delivery of training. Examines theimplications of the model in organizations which have adopted totalquality management.

    Notes: The controversy as to whether or not advertising impairs the efficientfunctioning of markets because it acts as a "barrier" to new firms wishingto enter a market has once again attracted the interest of the UKcompetition authorities. Looks at the advertising and barrier to entryissue as seen in a number of Monopolies and Mergers Commissioninvestigations. Concludes that the conventional negative view ofadvertising needs to be tempered by the positive role played byadvertising in facilitating actual entry, and suggests that insofar asthere are a number of other factors which may inhibit market entry it isnecessary to look at this issue "in the round" rather than from one narrowperspective.
