    abstract = {One of the staff development initiatives in South African universities involves 
  the acquisition of PhDs by academic staff. There is a realization that as the 
  highest qualification in the academia, the PhD empowers and prepares an individual 
  for an academic career. Within South Africa’s transformation towards a 
  knowledge-based economy/society, the PhD is an important and essential tool. 
  With specific reference to the University of KwaZulu-Natal (one of the Research-Intensive 
  Universities in South Africa), the study discusses support mechanisms, incentives 
  and progress monitors that are in place for academic staff who are pursuing 
  PhDs.}
