Promoting Workplace Learning by Neil Thompson
This book provides an overview of the key issues involved in promoting workplace learning. Building on ideas discussed in Practice Teaching in Social Work (Pepar Publications, 1994), this clear text covers not only developments in traditional practice learning, but also wider aspects of workplace learning and the development of a learning culture.
While 21st century social work emphasises the rhetoric of work-based learning, Thompson's book sets out a workable blueprint in a simple accessible style... it is recommended reading for social workers and employers alike. Professional Social Work This is an excellent book, written in an accessible style, which clearly explains the essential ingredients of workplace learning. The book will be of immense value to a range of health and social care staff and those involved in facilitating their education and continuing professional development.
