Synopsis

Interest in learning at work has captured the attention of many people around the world, often taking centre stage in policy debates. This book is about the everyday learning that goes on in workplaces - ranging from offices, factories and shops to gyms, health centres and universities.

Each chapter presents evidence - taken from both private and public sectors - to illustrate how employers, researchers and policy-makers can

  • Improve the conditions for nurturing and sustaining learning at work
  • Build appropriate workforce development plans within given constraints
  • Recognize that the creation and use of knowledge is widely distributed
  • Mobilize existing workplace resources to support learning

This topical book will appeal to an international readership of undergraduate and postgraduate students, vocational teachers and trainers, human resource professionals, policy-makers, and researchers.
