Abstract	A recent study focused on workplace learning in the UK, USA and Canada; 14 universities, two community colleges and 15 host organisations were included. Interviews were conducted with directors of professional peak associations, academic supervisors, placement officers, managers and/or field supervisors and students. This paper reports on the ways in which higher education institutions organise and prepare students, academic staff and site supervisors to work in international and cross-cultural work-based programmes. It examines the level of integration that occurs between academic learning and the planning and execution of cross-cultural and/or international work-based placements. (Author).
