| Abstract | Although corporate spending on partnerships with education has more than doubled in the past 20 years, many in educational circles are questioning whether corporate contributions benefit student knowledge and learning development as well as corporations' bottom lines. Three examples of corporate giving that can be viewed from dual perspectives are information technology training programs, product distribution bonuses, and company-developed curricula. By linking school to work, business/industry partnerships have played a key role in keeping vocational education current with the skill demands of a changing workplace in order to attract students and prepare them for meaningful and relevant employment. Corporate support of education becomes most attractive to both schools and corporations when the goals of both partners are considered. Business/industry partnerships with education must be consensus driven. Because negotiating partnerships can be difficult, a neutral third party may be helpful in facilitating communication between education and corporate communities. Business/industry partnerships cannot be exclusive of worker representation. Educators must understand that dollars contributed to educational institutions must reap rewards for the contributing business; however, business/industry must cease to view their financial contributions from a profit motive perspective and instead consider contributions to be investments in the future work force.
