'Supporting workplace learning is never easy because it cannot be done in isolation of all other workplace activities - whether that is producing widgets or providing a service. If the entire context of the workplace is under constant change then this can either enhance learning or condemn it to the sidelines. Which is it to be? I believe that change is exciting and provides fertile ground for creativity and innovation. I hope that this book will demonstrate to you that workplace learning will enable our shared ambition for a first-class health service to become a reality.' Lynne Caley, in the Preface
