Abstract: This paper describes findings from a four-year research study which used a mixture of qualitative and quantitative research methods to identify factors that facilitate social learning and collaborative knowledge development. Social learning includes those factors which enable transmission of knowledge and practice and which foster generative learning. This paper's specific focus is on the facilitators of team building that support knowledge sharing and knowledge development.
