Neil Thompson sets out what you really need to know about supporting further learning during placement and practice.
Stripping away the confusion and anxiety about 'what next?', this manual goes back to the core theories of how learning works in the first place, and how you can synchronise that with values and reflective practice to help your students and colleagues reach their professional goals. Summaries illustrate and reinforce the guidance, creating a set of easy-to-follow strategies for effective workplace development mentoring.
Accessible explanations guide you through the theory and practice, covering everything from fostering a learning environment to troubleshooting difficulties and encouraging a culture of self-directed learning. Grow your mentoring skills and help your colleagues get to grips with not just what to learn, but how to learn it and make it stick.

Press Reviews
Audrey Tait, senior practitioner Edinburgh city council, co-author of the Practical Guides to Direct Work series
Neil has given us an invaluable manual which will support anybody in the role of facilitating learning and indeed be very useful to the learners themselves. The manual promotes the drawing together of practice and Theory and is an extremely accessible read. I appreciated the use of reflective moment boxes and key points and anticipate that my copy will become well-worn with use!
