Editor's note
=============
The last few weeks have seen two sets of training representative
bodies merge to form new alliances. ISM and NEBS Management, and
the Association for Management Education and Development and the
Coaching and Mentoring Network have respectively joined forces to
further their joint interests - we look forward to following
their progress.
One of the really nice things about the new TrainingZONE site is
that a lot more of it can be personalised for you! Now you can
have your own specialist news service, choose which of our
newswires to receive or access your selected Library documents
