Long Life Learning: Preparing for Jobs That Don't Even Exist Yet is a visionary guide for the future of learning and work. In this near-future world, careers span 100 years, and education is a lifelong journey. The book argues that learners of the future will continuously seek out educational opportunities throughout their working lives, without the traditional boundaries of beginning, middle, and end. Long Life Learning focuses on the disruptive and burgeoning innovations that are shaping a new learning model, encompassing clear navigation, wraparound and funding supports, targeted education, and transparent hiring processes.
Written by the former chief innovation officer of Strada Education Networks Institute for the Future of Work, the book delves into questions such as how an extended lifespan will impact our careers, how longer work periods will shape our educational needs, and whether a four-year degree earned at the start of a 100-year career will adequately prepare us for the challenges ahead. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the future of education and Clayton Christensen's theories of disruptive innovation. It offers an insightful glimpse into a future that many of us have yet to imagine.
