Formal versus Grass-Roots Training: Women, Work, and Computers.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Brunet, Jean; Proulx, Serge – Journal of Communication, 1989

Finds that both are used by men to advance their careers but that women use them to catch up and survive economically in a transformed workplace. (SR)
