Bibliography: leaves 123-130. / This study examined management development at the University of Cape Town (UCT), with specific reference to the Associate in Management (AIM) course offered at the Graduate School of Business. It is a part-time course offered to people already in employment at different levels from across various industries. Some of the recruits enrolled are working full-time in the public sector. UCT as an employer also has had some of its staff enrolled on a part-time basis on this course Further, this study descriptively analysed training and development in general at UCT, particularly regarding junior and middle layers of management. In addition, it assessed any noticeable changes in skills, knowledge and attitudes (attributes) that may have resulted from the AIM intervention. At the heart of this study also are the institutional structural complexities that have a direct bearing on the success of any development program.
