Abstract
THE report of the Council of the City and Guilds of London Institute for 1947 gives ample evidence of the Institute's growing activities. There has been a large increase in the number of students at the City and Guilds College, particularly postgraduate and research students. In the Department of Technology the total number of candidates examined was 47,807, 7,336 higher than the previous highest total of 40,471 recorded in 1939. Among the regulations and syllabuses for existing examinations which have been revised during 1947 are those of petroleum and petroleum products, electrical engineering practice, road service work and motor-vehicle electrician's work ; while among syllabuses at present being considered for introduction later into the examinations conducted by the technology department are courses in works administration subjects for craftsmen, servicing and maintenance for instrument mechanics, and courses for electrical apprentices in iron and steel and other heavy engineering work. Copies of the report may be obtained from Gresham College, Basinghall Street, London, E.C.2.
