The Learning at Work Survey, 2004 is an innovative survey of how employees learn at work. It comprised questions that aim to: reveal previously under-researched (and under-surveyed) sources of learning associated with everyday work activities; identify their relative importance in helping individuals improve their job performance and map their distribution among employees. It was based on a survey of 1,943 employees interviewed about their jobs in a three week period in February 2004. This survey is linked to the Communities of Practice Survey, 2007 (available at the UKDA under SN 6085). Both surveys were completed as part of a project set up to investigate the factors that facilitate or impede learning at work. Further information about the project can be found on the project webpage and the ESRC Award webpage. Topics covered include:employment historylearningskillsworkplace organisation team work
