    Author Abstract: The domains of management education and management
    development have remained relatively distinct Recent trends suggest a
    blurring of the boundaries of these worlds. There is a growing corporate
    confidence that in-company provision has equivalent, even superior, claims
    to relevant knowledge and warrant academic recognition. This paper looks at
    the significance and implications of these developments. Research is based
    on two local authority case study organisations. The methodology is
    qualitative in orientation and based on in-depth interviews and discussions
    with human resource practitioners and university delivery teams. In both
    case studies programme participants as well as project leaders articulated
    different reasons for the importance of "work place relevance" and
    usefulness of the programme. This paper seeks to address the findings.
