Changes in the economy have caused a shift in the occupations of older workers and changes in technology have made the job skills acquired 20 or 30 years ago obsolete. These factors combined with the need of many older people to work into their late sixties have created a demand for training specifically targeted to the needs of the older worker. This brief discusses this new direction for training and outlines the specific factors to be considered in designing training.
