Presented in Part 3 are the following analyses networking's potential for enhancing individual learning: "Gender, Mentoring, and Networking" (Woodd), "Action Learning Sets" (Lilley); "Networks and Personal Learning" (Wrycza), and "Networking and Research--Creating a Research Unit within a Context of Professional Education" (Robinson).
