London Calling to the WILderness

A first for the show - I'm going across the pond to London, England...well figuratively speaking. Canada is a big country and has some pretty amazing people, but we aren't the only ones doing cool and innovative things when it comes to WIL. This week I sit down with Dr. Trevor Gerhardt, Lead Academic on Work Integrated Learning at Pearson College and Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy to give us a snapshot of WIL in the UK. Trevor shares his passion for work integrated learning, experiences growing up in South Africa, degree apprenticeships, organizing an unconference and why he thinks his podcast is better than mine. Guest: Dr. Trevor Gerhardt, Lead Academic on Work Integrated Learning at Pearson College. Check out his podcast here to explore the intersection between work and learning.
