Many learning professionals think that a corporate university is just a training department with a fancy name. In fact, corporate universities do much more than training and development they engage in such activities as culture change, succession planning, executive coaching, mentoring, knowledge management, and many others.

"The objective of this book is to provide innovative approaches for developing people and expanding organizational capabilities. If you also have this objective, this book is for you, because each chapter is written by a qualified author to provide the information you need."
—Donald L. Kirkpatrick, Ph.D., professor emeritus, University of Wisconsin, and author, Evaluating Training Programs: The Four Levels
