Continuing Education at the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory
This paper discusses the philosophy, organization, and rationale of the Continuing Education program for engineers and scientists at the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory in Livermore, CA. The importance of diversified offerings designed to fit the needs of the individual is stressed, as is the recognition that continuing education is not necessarily confined to the traditional teacher-student relationship. The impact of the video cassette player is discussed for employees unable to meet rigid class schedules, as are the television links to the major universities in Northern California.
