This topic is something that I am still very interested in as I hear people discuss actions that are clearly training related in an education environment.
During the most recent issue of Leadership Journal, published by the Chair Academy, there is an excellent article (page 6) that further delves into this topic. Vaughan (2014) does an excellent job explaining the differences between the two. He takes it a step further by answering key questions about how trainers fit into academia and how academics fit into the training world.
As a member of the Chair Academy, I appreciate this article, along with the great works they do to further Post secondary leadership.
