Lifelong learning offers many benefits. As well as developing our capabilities, understanding, values and ideas, it can increase our capacity to reflect, and promote health and happiness. Our motivation to learn can be increased if we expect that the learning we take up will help us reach our work and personal goals, and that we will be successful at it – something that is supported by having positive experiences of learning, confidence in our abilities as a learner and peer and community support.  

Use Learning at Work Week to connect colleagues to a range of activities that build confidence and motivation and overcome barriers to learning, including testing new approaches.
