Abstract

The article deals with the quantitative forecasting methods and goal setting in educational planning used by the Education of the Population 2000 Report. Particular attention is directed at the use of alternative methods in manpower forecasting and the possibilities of the demand approach to education, at the importance of the population’s training preferences, at the problems of the expansion of adult education, and at the contribution of training to the possible control of the on-going structural change in economy.
