A Framework for Developing Vocational Morals

Abstract

This paper proposes 15 principles of educational intervention for developing vocationalised moral values for workplaces. The principles are drawn from a study of 14 construction workers in Queensland, Australia and draws from their understanding and perception of vocational moral development. The paper proposes these principles as a basis for lifelong learning. This concept of lifelong learning is summarised in terms of educational outcomes and engagements within institutional and industrialised regulatory contexts and contrary experiential social and personal contexts.
