About the Book

This is the original full-length handbook which caters to the specific needs of work-based learners. Compiled by work-based learning experts from institutions across the world, this hands-on guide helps new learners to successfully navigate academia and get the most out of their university experience. It provides clear guidance on the processes involved in getting recognition for prior learning, setting up learning contracts and completing work-based projects. Real-life case studies, useful tips and reflective activities are embedded throughout to enrich students' learning experience.

This is the essential companion for all undergraduates on work-based learning degrees across a range of disciplines, including business and management, health and social care, law, sport and exercise science and tourism. It will also be an invaluable resource for work-based learning tutors, workplace supervisors and organisations with an interest in work-based learning.

New to this Edition:
- Brand new chapter from a new contributor entitled 'Developing Yourself, Developing Your Organisations'
- Packed with real-life case studies, including new international cases and cases on topics such as transferable skills and being entrepreneurial
- New content on building employment skills, using social media for your learning and global terminologies around work-based learning
