Description
This study examined to what extent the commerce/management education provided by Saudi universities is aligned with the needs of the Saudi private sector. Specifically, the study first identified the level of importance attached to a set of training/skill areas by the executives of Saudi private sector companies, and then sought their opinions concerning how well the present educational system satisfies those needs. Results highlight skill/training areas in which matches and mismatches exist. Implications of the results are discussed.
