Welcome

 

Stan Lester Developments is a sole-proprietor consultancy founded in 1993 and based in the south-west of England.

My main areas of work are:

§  supporting the development of emerging professions and communities of practice

§  professional standards, qualifying and development processes

§  professional and work-based education and training systems

§  research into digital learning, particularly linked to workplaces.

I provide expert advice and commentaries, develop frameworks and resources, and carry out small-scale research studies and reviews.  This paper reflects on my approach after 30 years in practice:  Success factors in consultancy projects: making ‘maps that work’”.

 

Some recent publications are below, or use the menu to explore further.

► UVAC conceptual papers:  Beyond Degree Apprenticeships and Assessment challenges in integrated professional development

► Article:  New technology and professional work

► Chapter:  Integrated professional development: learning-integrated work? 

 

I am currently completing some research on how well degree and higher apprenticeships are working as professional entry and progression routes.  A brief summary of the interim findings can be found here, and the full report will be published early in 2025.
