Learning exists in every aspect and stage of life

Our research is committed to connecting people to empowering and diverse opportunities to learn, within and beyond recognised sites for learning, such as workplaces, schools, universities and community contexts. Learning is everywhere and always possible. We expand the body of knowledge addressing the most 'wicked' problems—barriers to learning—and the ways workplaces, communities and other sites of education can effectively engage with diverse people.

Major areas

  • Practice-based learning
  • Leadership for learning in complex work environments
  • Vocational Education and Training (VET)
  • Leadership for learning in schools and flexible/non-traditional schools

Project Highlight

Singapore Program

Professor Sarojni Choy has led the longest running Singapore-government-sponsored masters programs delivered by any international university—the Master of Training and Development and Master of Learning and Professional Development. The program, originally founded by Professor Stephen Billett whilst a Visiting Research Fellow at the Institute for Adult Learning has contributed to high-quality postgraduate student experiences, staff excellence in teaching, learning and research and, most importantly, enhancing Griffith’s engagement in the Asian region.
