This book addresses the education and training of Members of Parliament (MP) across several countries. It examines existing training programs offered around the world, evaluates their strengths and weaknesses, and makes recommendations for a new approach which inclines professional development of MPs to requirements of the 21st century. Contributions in this book deal with the role of parliamentarians, and how to prepare them for their multi-faceted functions. The topics also include the importance of ethics in any curriculum; the need for a more sophisticated adult learning approach; human resource implications, and the need to reform existing training models. This book will appeal to researchers and scholars in the fields of political science and education, as well as parliamentarians interested in performing efficiently and effectively.
