Education and the Industrial Personnel Function—Team-Mates

Ralston Purina Co., St. Louis, Missouri

ABSTRACT

I am not sure I have ever before seen Education and the Industrial Personnel Function portrayed as team-mates. I do feel, however, that if these two forces work together in close harmony, their common objective of better placement of the college graduate could be more readily and effectively accomplished. Here are some possible areas of cooperation we might consider: Cooperative Education; Methods of Personnel Selection; Performance Standards Industry Expects from the Four-Year Graduate; Opportunities in Industry for Advanced Degree Personnel.

In these categories both Industry and Education have definite responsibilities. It is the job of education to turn out superior students with academic training to fit the needs of industry. And it is industry's job to take these students and develop them to their maximum potential.

COOPERATIVE EDUCATION

This technique has been with us for a long time, since 1906, in fact. And it was not long afterwards that a number of schools began to alternate work periods in local industry with academic training.
