Welcome to the WBL Champion Learning Platform!

The WBL Learning Platform is designed to provide free resources that support the implementation of Work-Based Learning (WBL), primarily in the Higher Education context, while promoting innovation in education and professional development.

Our goals

The WBL Champion Learning Platform aims to empower educators and mentors by providing free, high-quality resources to support Work-Based Learning (WBL). We strive to offer regular access to Continuous Professional Development (CPD) courses and the Quality Assurance Toolkit, helping higher education institutions design and implement effective, innovative WBL programmes. By promoting continuous learning and professional growth, the platform ensures that both academic and industry mentors are equipped to navigate the increasingly dynamic landscape of education and professional development.
