THE INDIVIDUAL LEARNING AGREEMENT IS A VERY IMPORTANT DOCUMENT FOR PLANNING AND ASSESSING A LEARNING PROGRAM.
AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE LEARNER AND THE INSTRUCTIONAL MANAGER / FACILITATOR THAT GUIDES BOTH OF THEM THROUGH THE WHOLE LEARNING PROCESS.
The Flexible Learning Style used in this system helps the learners meet their individual learning goals.
FLEXIBILITY in this context means that the out-of-school youth and adult learners can decide on what they will learn ,when they will learn, and how they will learn. Learning needs are written as learning goals on the Individual Learning Agreement [ILA]
