Consult – Formative Case Study Analysis

In this assignment, you will conduct a formative evaluation of formal and informal learning in your case study organization relevant to this learning milestone. Specifically, you will examine each of the following factors as they influence learning in your organization:

• Organizational processes and mission or operations
• Organizational structure and common team dynamics
• Legislation, policies, or procedures
• Situational and motivational influences on learning
• Formal training programs or learning efforts

Your evaluation should take the form of an APA-formatted paper with 2-3 pages of narrative text in addition to a title page and reference list. For full credit, the paper must include:

• Overview
• Background information on the processes, policies, and influencing factors on formal and informal learning
• Case-specific information addressing the points listed above
• Your evaluation of how these factors influence (positively or negatively) learning as a competitive advantage in this organization
• Conclusion

Your assessment should be supported by no fewer than 5 scholarly sources, only two of which may be chapters from the textbook or articles provided in the Milestone lessons. Sources specific to the organization (e.g. the organization’s website, policy documents, press releases, or news references) should all be properly cited, but do not count as the scholarly sources you use to ground your assessment in theory.
