Tóm tắt

Describes the wide diversity of career development support programmes now being offered by many employers in Australia. Summarizes positive and negative effects along with the conclusions arrived at after 98 workplace interventions within Australia. Concludes career development is seen by human resource management and training professionals as a means of providing interventions and learning experiences which will help staff adjust to maintaining their employability rather than long‐term tenure.
