Description

Explore a new perspective on professional development with Professions, Competence and Informal Learning by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book examines the history and sociology of professions while investigating the true nature of professional practice. Through extensive research covering 20 different professions, the authors present a new model for understanding how professional competence is built. A key focus of this work is the role of informal learning. The research identifies various informal processes that are just as vital to achieving competence as formal training programs. By highlighting these methods, the book proposes a new paradigm for professional growth that integrates both formal education and informal experiences. This resource is ideal for those studying labour economics, sociology, or professional practice, offering deep insights into how skills are actually acquired and maintained in the modern workforce.
