| Summary: | In the current world scenario of knowledge based economy, competitiveness had never been
greater. Organisations and entities need to enhance their human capital capabilities to a level
comprising of internal norms and external up-to-date practices. The major results of industryacademia
collaboration are still blurred by risk and regulatory fog.
This paper draws its contents from the experience and practices of workplace programme
initiatives leading to planning, designing and delivery of such programmes. It shares the
challenges and strategies for effective initiatives leading to excellent ROI in human capital for
recipient organisation and providers.
It is aimed to examine what practices/pedagogies/structures enhance the integration of work
and learning and what discourage it? Change of policies incorporating assumptions about the
integration of work and learning (such as lifelong learning, recognition of prior learning, etc)
has made learning at work more conducive with the impact of globalization.
The new kinds of partnerships and networks that are increasingly prominent in work
arrangements and structures would present the various challenges/opportunities for
integrating work and learning. |
