Abstract
The authors set out their view of the firm as a learning organization, outline the objectives of the Teaching Company Scheme, and assess the ways in which it works in practice. They explore how firms are able to use the scheme effectively to tap in to knowledge held within higher-education institutions and so extend their knowledge base and increase their competitive performance. They look also at the potential for expanding the Scheme to operate in different contexts and for different kinds of knowledge-exchange problems. In particular, they examine the potential for extending the Scheme into greater numbers of small firms, and the problems likely to be encountered in doing so.Keywords
