Learning to be Professional through a Higher Education 

Surrey Centre for Excellence in Professional Training and Education (SCEPTrE)

    

 

This wiki facilitates exploration of the idea of learning to be professional in the context of undergraduate higher education designs that set out to develop professional as well as academic capability. It is one of a series of wikis established by SCEPTrE to explore the theme of learning for a complex world.  Although the SCEPTrE project finished in March 2011 this wiki will continue to be developed as part of the portfolio of not for profit work undertaken by Chalk Mountain. If you would like to contribute a seminar or a chapter to the e-book or any other resource, please contact Professor Norman Jackson normanjjackson@btinternet.com
