I have never been a fan of learning at work. It seems to impose a sort of group thought where employees learn by following patterns in place under the shadow of work culture and procedure. That has always struck me as highly uncritical and non disruptive.

Instead if you need new skills or want to advance your current skills my recommendation is to write an original application that solves some problem. Then you are forced to make original decisions and own the resulting consequences under risk of failure.
