Career development opportunities now available via Action Learning web site – www.action-learning.org
The Action Learning Institute (ALI), a new career-focused Web portal, is now live at http://www.action-learning.org. The site is run by the International Management Centres Association (IMCA), and was developed in partnership with ingenta.
The site offers a pro-active environment where individuals can learn about the principals and techniques of action learning, and use them to develop their own career.
Over the coming months, ALI will also provide news, resources and the latest trends in the field of action learning. The discussion area provides users with the opportunity to ask questions and debate action learning with a group of like-minded professionals.
A new diagnostic tool, the Career Review Document (CaRD) has made its debut at ALI. Site visitors complete an online form, providing information about their work history and aspirations. A career advisor will then review the users career to date, and recommend next steps.
The CaRD is one of the premium services within the Action Learning Institute. For $25, users can access all premium services, including access to Cafe ALI, an informal meeting place, and five action learning journals: -
Virtual University Journal
Continuing Professional Development
International Journal of Action Learning
Action Learning Outcomes
Management Literature Review
IMCA launched its first action learning programmes in 1984.
