Effective training for civil engineers - H. Macdonald Steels

Effective training fro civil engineers has been written specifically to explore methods by which 'on-the-job' training, or experiential learning, can be made more efficient and effective, to highlight the problem areas which are faced by trainees and their supervisors and to provide practical solutions on how these problems can be overcome. Drawing on vast experience of the author, H.Macdonald Steels, who has been involved in graduate training since 1963, Effective training for civil engineers looks at training, not fromthe conventional angle covered by most text books, but from the perspective of creating an environment in which staff continue to learn all of the time. Covering all aspects of the training of a young civil engineer, from formal education to professional qualification with the Institution of Civil Engineers, Effective training for civil engineers will be of benefit to both trainee and trainer alike and will become the standard text in the training libraries of all major civil engineering companies.
