Abstract

Background:
This paper explores the conceptual and methodological problems arising from several empirical investigations of professional education and learning in the workplace.
Aims:
1. To clarify the multiple meanings accorded to terms such as ‘non-formal learning’, ‘implicit learning’ and ‘tacit knowledge’, their theoretical assumptions and the range of phenomena to which they refer.
2. To discuss their implications for professional practice.
Method:
A largely theoretical analysis of issues and phenomena arising from empirical investigations.
