LLE researchers examine workplace learning in its various forms and a variety of professions, including the corporate, education and healthcare sectors.
We investigate the transition to work for disadvantaged youth and adults and also examine vocational and tertiary education contexts.
Our expertise in workplace and professional learning underpins the Master of Education (Learning and Leadership) program.
