In the 2007 National Study of Business Strategy and Workforce Development, almost half (45.1%) of the employers reported that their organizations are oriented to learning, saying it is “very true” that their organizations expect employees at all stages of their careers to develop new skills and competencies. Similarly, 42.6% stated that it is “very true” that they encourage employees to adopt a lifelong learning perspective. (p. 13)

The National Study of Business Strategy and Workforce Development is a 2007 study carried out by The Center on Aging & Work/Workplace Flexibility at Boston College. Human resource professionals at 578 non-governmental organizations with 50 or more employees completed a survey about their organization's response to the aging workforce. At these organizations, approximately three-fourths of the employees were full-time, almost half were women and one-third were members of a racial/ethnic minority group.
