Firms were not selected randomly; rather, they were selected because of their active use of training to adapt their staff to technological, economic, and organizational change. The sample included franchise and nonfranchise firms. All 21 microfirms studied were simultaneously pursuing growth strategies and the strategy of specialization in networks. Of the 60 mechanics interviewed, 43 had initial vocational education for the sector. Except for the apprentices, all 43 mechanics participated in continuing training during the previous 3 years. Of the 17 mechanics with no initial training for the sector, 10 (59%) had participated in continuing training and only 7(41%) reported learning a great deal from that training. Many employees developed skills through incidental learning (including learning by solving problems individually or with colleagues, learning by regular rotation of tasks, and learning under the boss or an experienced worker).

Three sectors have been analyzed, the Retail, the Car Repair and Printing sectors, all in the perspective of the organizational changes which occurred in those firms and their learning potential. We have chosen to focus on the micros because they are generally less studied. Micro firms are confronted with important ongoing changes as every other organisation at this end of the century, where internationalisation affects directly or indirectly all aspects of our life. But what makes them more interesting to analyse is their specific nature which is distinguished by the role of the owner and his/her constant passage from entrepreneurial to managerial tasks, as they mingle, the micros not having distinctive departments or people to deal with either. This does not mean that we limit ourselves to the owners and their roleinthe development
