Individual Learning Project Instructions
The Individual Learning Project is an opportunity for you to evaluate yourself and your role within your organization by completing 10 self-assessment activities. You will begin the paper by completing a modified Abstract that details a past, present, or future job you will use as a basis for analyzing the self-assessment results. You will then write a full-page analysis of each assessment and combine all 10 together according to the provided format for submission at the end of the course. You will find the Appendix B (Scoring Keys for Self-Assessment Activities) PDF in Module/Week 8 and in the Individual Learning Project Instructions folder.
These are the activities you must complete. They are found at the end of the indicated chapter.
