Abstract

This chapter discusses education for commerce. Products have to be not only produced but also distributed. In an economy of commodities, distribution of products is loosely known as commerce. It includes three main kinds of activities—trading, organizing the general facilities and consequences of trading, and supplying the special services needed by traders. Modern business machines are often too costly either for colleges to install or for firms to use for training purposes. In such cases, operators are therefore usually trained in their employer's time by the firms that supply the machines. Professional membership plays a greater part in commercial than in technical education. It can be sought either as a route to specialist practice or as a general qualification for a commercial career. Public commercial education is provided in technical colleges, colleges of commerce, evening institutes, residential colleges of adult education, central institutions, and further education centers.
