Lifelong Learning is essential to all individuals and in recent
years has become a guiding principle for policy initiatives,
ranging from national economic competition to issues of social
cohesion and personal fulfilment. However, despite the importance
of lifelong learning there is a critical absence of direct,
international evidence on its extent, content and outcomes.
Lifelong Learning in Paid and Unpaid Work provides a new paradigm
for understanding work and learning, documenting the active
contribution of workers to their development and their adaptation
to paid and unpaid work. Empirical evidence drawn from national
surveys in Canada and eight related case studies is used to explore
the current learning activities of those in paid employment,
housework and volunteer work, addressing all forms of learning
including: formal schooling, further education courses, informal
training and self-directed learning, particularly in the context of
organisational and technological change. Proposing an expanded
conceptual framework for investigating the relationships between
learning and work, the contributors offer new insights into the
ways in which adult learning adapts to and helps reshape the wide
contemporary world of work throughout the life course.
