Edited by Professor Norman Jackson
Sharing and integrating perspectives on the process of being and becoming professional
SCEPTrE's e-book project was launched in September 2009. It comprises a series of Chapters written by members of the SCEPTrE Team, or commissioned by SCEPTrE or volunteered by the people who use this wiki. The purpose of the book is to explore the idea of learning to be professional through a higher education and to bring together a range of perspectives on what being professional means, and descriptions and evaluations of different approaches that are used to prepare learners for the complexities of a life-time of being professional. If you would like to volunteer a Chapter describing the approaches that you use or offer a perspective on what being professional means, please contact the editor Professor Norman Jackson Norman.Jackson@surrey.ac.uk or norman@chalkmountain.eu
Goals
We welcome contributions. If you would like to contribute please read the guidance notes.
