Educating the Deliberate Professional

“This book provides a very valuable contribution to the literature and assists in our understanding of the complex aspects of learning for the modern world through work-integrated learning for students. I, therefore, recommend this book without hesitation to researchers and curricular developers in work-integrated learning, and also to those engaged in wider curricular renewal and review in higher education.” (Dr. Karsten E. Zegwaard, Asia-Pacific Journal of Cooperative Education, Vol. 17 (3), 2016)
