Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly impacting on all organisations. It has also been proposed as a way to scale professional learning. However, while much professional learning is informal (it includes ‘on the job’ training such as observing how an expert colleague carries out a task or engaging in strategic discussions), current applications of AI in professional learning draw on AI applications developed for schools and universities to focus on formal professional learning (training courses with prespecified content and outcomes). Informal professional learning, or ‘workplace learning,’ has yet to be addressed by AI. Accordingly, in this chapter, we explore the characteristics and requisite skills of workplace learning, such as self-regulation, before considering the potential of AI for workplace learning.
