Learning in the workplace has come of age with the publication of
this book. It shows the way for a new level of sophistication in
the ways learning and work are treated. And it opens new territory
for exploration in the world of learning throughout life. David
Boud, University of Technology, Sydney Stephen Billett provides a
comprehensive and practical model, well-grounded in theory and
research, to guide learning in the workplace. This is a 'must read'
for those in vocational education and training. Victoria Marsick,
Columbia University Learning does not stop when you leave school or
tertiary studies, but continues throughout life. The workplace is
now seen as an important learning environment, and businesses and
government units are encouraged to become 'learning organisations'.
This is all very well in theory, but how does learning actually
occur in the workplace? Drawing on research of a wide variety of
workplaces in different countries, Stephen Billett analyses the
strengths and limitations of 'on-the-job' learning. He outlines
what knowledge individuals need and how they can best acquire this
knowledge in workplace settings. He shows how to develop a
workplace curriculum, and how it can be implemented in
organisations of different sizes. Learning in the Workplace offers
a comprehensive pedagogy for the workplace. It is a valuable
reference for human resource practitioners and students in courses
on professional development and adult and vocational learning.
