Fostering employability through lifelong learning

Abstract

The past few decades have seen staggering challenges and changes to the composition and structure of our societies. Technological, scientific, and medical modernization has meant that the evolving professional development of palliative care knowledge and experience and the ability to make more informed decisions about our lives and those of our patients, has moved the focus of learning from a discrete formal classroom-based activity, to an enduring process of formal and informal personal enquiry and erudition.
