5 Foreword In the age of the knowledge economy, the belief is widely expressed that work organizations are only as good as their people. The performative knowledge and skills of workers are the organization s primary assets. Individual knowledge forms the basis for communication of information to others who will then make sense of it in the light of their own personal knowledge. For individual knowledge to become organizational knowledge, and thus fully contribute to the work organization, it must be shared and accepted by others. This may be problematic as individual knowledge is often unrecognised not only by the work organization but often by the individual holding the knowledge, in such cases the knowledge is tacit and its use within the organization is limited. The complexity and richness of learning through work, at work and for the purposes of work are now widely recognised by human resource professionals and academics alike. Whilst work-based learning is fundamentally challenging to traditional concepts of disciplinary-based knowledge, it has become a feature of the higher education landscape impacting upon learning, teaching and research and providing a new dimension to the role of the modern university. Over the last 20 years, there has been a growing scholarship of work-based learning ranging from the exploratory and the descriptive to sustained engagement with the ontological and epistemological challenges of learning from and for the purposes of work. This book stands out as a timely and above all scholarly contribution to our understanding of work and learning. The distinguished contributors bring to bear a range of international perspectives spanning cultural as well as disciplinary understandings. The book provides an exploration not only of the context of work as a place of learning but also logically extends into the domains of philosophy and ethics. The central theme is that work is an essential part of our being, and thus, the book raises our sights beyond the performative value of understanding the complex v

6 vi Foreword relationships between work and learning to an appreciation that the study of work and learning is fundamental to our increased understanding of the human condition. In this way, the authors make an important contribution to an increasingly mature field of study. Director, Institute for Work Based Learning Middlesex University Professor Jonathan Garnett
