Abstract
JIMENEZ MERONO, SERGIO; SANCHEZ MEDERO, RUBÉN and SANCHEZ MEDERO, GEMA. Institutes of Public Administration in Spain: training programs for public employees. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2010, vol.26, n.116, pp.169-192. ISSN 0123-5923.
Public administration has always shown some concern about the training of public officials. This is the reason that this article provides a review of the training plans for 2004 at five Institutes of Public Administration in Spain, but only reference is made to the five following variables: characteristics, timing, target audience, requirements, and selection, and the subjects of the training activities. The SPSS software enabled us to corelate these variables and identify the current training policy of these institutions. In turn, it also allowed us to establish whether there is some sort of connection with an attempt of modernization and professionalization or this policy has been scheduled without a clear objective.
