Informal learning is semi-structured and occurs in a variety of places through daily interactions among a group of people. Though participants have the intention of learning something, it happens outside of a traditional classroom setting without an instructor. This type of learning is increasing in popularity as it allows for learning to happen on-demand and at the learner’s pace. This book introduces readers to informal learning and provides them with practical suggestions for implementing informal learning in their organizations. Readers will discover how people learn informally, ways to provide informal learning, how to use technology to support informal learning, how to make the most of existing resources, and more.
