Assuming no prior knowledge or experience, this textbook provides
an up to date introduction to the key concepts and issues within
the field of learning and development.
Blending key theories and concepts with a practical approach, the
text covers the core areas that line managers and HRD practitioners
need to know in order to design, implement and evaluate formal
training interventions. In addition to these core areas, more
contemporary issues such as learning and development within small
and medium sized enterprises, and the sharing and management of
knowledge are outlined.
The textbook draws on a wide range of features to ensure and
encourage learning and understanding. Within each chapter key
concepts are introduced at the start of each chapter; other
features include "hints and tips" boxes, "practitioner
perspectives," and end of chapter case studies, and chapter
revision questions. There is also a supporting online resource
centre providing resources for students and lecturers.
