In the above sentence, is it correct to use "of" after need or should it be "for". Should I use article before "need"

  • Oxford Learners Dictionaries has "They identified a need for further training", which seems to fit this. I'm not sure that "of" is wrong, though: it can be used with "need" in some contexts. Also, intuition and this example both suggest "there is a need" rather than "there is need", unless you want to specify different degrees of need (there is need, there is more need). https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/need_2 – Stuart F Nov 18 '20 at 15:36

    Does this answer your question? "Need of" vs. "need for" – Laurel Nov 18 '20 at 18:59
