The demand for work-ready graduates, who are familiar with organizational practices in the workplace is increasing, and so the need for greater work integrated learning (WIL) is a growing concern for the education sector.

- The what, when, where, why and who of WIL across professions
- Advice on building relationships between higher education and the workplace
- Guidance on preparing learners effectively for work
- Practical case studies from firsthand experience
- Direct information and instruction on the use of WIL
Work Integrated Learning is a practical guide that can be used by the education sector and employers alike. An integrated resource, applicable to all involved in work integrated learning, it will also appeal to pro-Vice Chancellors of teaching and learning, WIL coordinators, careers services, and all those involved with standards and competency.
