Along with its companion web-based data warehouse, it is an invaluable, user-friendly resource for policy-makers, planners, managers, and educators at national and institutional levels. The review concludes from all this data that HRD challenges are cross-sectoral and advises the government to develop versatile, inter-departmental policies to address human resource development in South Africa successfully.
