      <abstract xml:lang="en">&lt;P&gt;Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.&lt;/P&gt;</abstract><abstract xml:lang="en">The aim of this study was to survey those students who received a postal course but returned none of its written work, i.e. about 50% of the total applicants for postal courses. They were too important a group of potential students to be disregarded entirely; but it seemed unlikely, on the basis of a meagre response to a pilot survey (involving 150 of this group and carried out in November/December 1977) that they would yield much information beyond their profile data, any uses they made of the course, and their reasons for not returning written work. Nevertheless, it was considered that such a survey represented a worthwile opportunity of collecting some data, albeit limited in its scope (a similar NEC/TUC questionnaire evoked a 10% response) about the ever-present group of potential entrants to trade union education.</abstract>
