The following data have been extracted from
the Higher Education-Business and Community Interaction Survey
(HE-BCIS). They relate to section 2c of the survey: Courses
for business and the community—CPD courses and CE (excluding
those funded by NHS or TDA). They are 2003-04 figures reported
by HE institutions in UK.
