Author Description

In the past decade fundamental changes have occurred in the ways vocational qualifications are developed, offered, accredited and related to economic goals and national productivity. These changes have been informed by efforts to adapt, modify and extend traditional models of adult education, community education, vocational education and training, human resource development and related disciplines. In the 21st century new challenges lie ahead for our critically conscious society - the valuing of both the individual and social life, of social and cultural differences, and the importance of connected meaningfulness in individuals' lives. Learning Together, Working Together takes up these issues. [Back cover].
