Learning at Work Week 2020 runs from 5 to 11 October on the theme 'Learning Journeys - where will you go?'

We have put together some free resources for learning in your own time. We hope you enjoy dipping in and out of these resources, and you can explore more about all these topics, or anything else that interests you,on OpenLearn or FutureLearn, for free, at any time.

We have been a supporter of Learning at Work Week for several years and have a playlist of webinars freely available on our YouTube channel, which also contains a host of other video resources from the Business School.

Learning at Work Week takes place in May every year. It is coordinated by the Campaign for Learning and is led by companies and organisations in their workplaces.
