Training for Exploitation?

This workbook is a critical resource pack for educators teaching employability, ‘professional practice’ and work-based learning.

For many years the members of Precarious Workers Brigade have been developing insightful

analyses, tools and actions questioning wageless and other exploitative forms of labour in the arts and education sectors. ‘Training for Exploitation?’ is no exception. As an educator I support the effort the book makes to provide the analysis and the tools needed to challenge the conversation, now predominant in the classroom, concerning ‘employability’. As a feminist I recognise many of these tools from past and contemporary practices of consciousness raising. They are effective and I encourage readers to use them. - Silvia Federici
