Synopsis

This book places practice and work-based learning in the context of preparing to become a work-based learner. The text provides learners with the skills to progress to being qualified senior support workers.The transition from worker to learner, from worker to student, and from worker to work-based/practice learner requires a range of skills and strategies to seek support and guidance. The text will also enable students to use their academic study to make the gradual transition to new ways of working and establish roles that are often completely new to their employing organisation. Scope and contents: a clear explanation and differentiation between work-based and practice-based learning; chapters to develop practical skills and suggest strategies to maximise workplace and practice-based learning opportunities; and an approach to empower, enthuse and enable aspiring health and social care students to secure and establish their first senior post within health and social care.
