Abstract
This research gained insights into how organisations within the blue-collar industry facilitate self-regulated learning of skills. To investigate this research topic, a qualitative multiple-case study was conducted within three cases. Five themes emerged from the collected data, and accordingly, a theoretical framework was developed that showed the relations between the different concepts. The analysis demonstrated that learner autonomy, as well as evaluating learning performance and feedback, are the most important self-regulated learning practices for blue-collar workers in relation to skill acquisition. In addition, the facilitation of self-regulated learning can be influenced by the organisational culture and structure. Therefore, the results of this study can contribute to the existing body of literature about how organisations within the blue-collar industry facilitate self-regulated learning of skills for their blue-collar workers.
