An Understanding of the Corporate University Phenomenon Based on Human Capital Theory

摘要：

This study investigates the corporate university (CU) phenomenon based on human capital research through a comprehensive review of literatures in economics and HRD. Different from existing CU literature, the study finds that, as HRD operational entities, CUs and traditional universities are rooted in different skills contexts, and that theorizing the CU phenomenon is to theorizing HRD. The study explores an alternative model to understand the CU phenomenon. Implications to HRD research are also discussed.
