Which level of organizational learning is defined as the skills and knowledge an employee gains through study and/or observation?

• A. Individual learning
• B. Group or team learning
• C. Organizational learning
• D. Adaptive learning

Answer: (A)

The skills and knowledge an employee gains through study and/or observation describe individual learning. This is personal development—learning that happens inside a single person as they study, train, or observe others. Group or team learning involves shared understanding and capabilities built through collaboration within a team. Organizational learning refers to how knowledge is created and spread across the whole organization, while adaptive learning focuses on adjusting practices in response to change. Since the description centers on one employee’s personal growth, the best fit is individual learning.
