Abstract
Henderson and Noble introduce a design-based research project conducted over seven years in a regional university in Australia. The research was designed as part of five scholarly teaching-learning projects. Some projects were established initially to address the attrition of early career teachers, by creating opportunities for professional induction and transition to the world of work. The projects inform thinking that initial teacher education programs should include a strong focus on professional learning and that such an approach will build workforce capacity over time. The chapter highlights the need for individuals to identify as members of the profession from the commencement of their Education studies, to ensure that their transition to the world of work is well supported and that the teacher workforce is sustainable.
