Dr. Julian Decius has published an overview article on informal workplace learning in the Psychologische Rundschau. It defines what informal learning actually is, how it can be distinguished from related forms of learning and how it can be measured. It also provides an overview of the predictors and consequences of informal learning based on the conceptual model by Scott Tannenbaum and Mikhail Wolfson (2022) and sets out a research agenda.

The article is originally published in German, but an English version is included in the online supplementary material and is accessible here.

This topic focuses on how (informal) learning behavior in organizations changes over days, weeks, and months. Moreover, we analyze the dynamics of work-related learning and how learning trajectories differ between employees.

The goal of this thematic focus is to examine conducive conditions for work-related learning, employability, and organizational development, both by managers (e.g., shaping learning culture) and by employees (e.g., job crafting).

This topic is dedicated to the question of how employees in dynamic work environments can be empowered to learn "what they really, really want" in a self-directed way. The "Learning Opportunities Perception Potential", which helps employees to grasp learning opportunities, is considered crucial here.
