Last week I was asked by the great team at Enviable Workplace.com to experiment by doing a video podcast for them instead of something written. So, here’s a 12 minute discussion on the role of education in the new world of work, and what we need to do to change schools and universities to provide us with the type of people we need for the future world of work.

The learning websites referred to in the video are:

  • O2 Learn
  • iTunes University
