New Concepts of Professional Expertise: Liberal Learning as Part of A Career-Oriented Education
Document Type
Occasional Paper
Publication Date
Fall 1990
Abstract
The nature of the expertise needed in most professions and higher level occupations is broadening because of changing organization and content of work. Today, a competent practitioner must be more than a narrow specialist. Curricular reviews aimed at ensuring liberal learning should abandon the false dichotomy between career-oriented and liberal education and begin by reexamining and broadening the major.
