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. Each self-assessment must have at least 1 reference from your textbook ( mcgraw hill education – can be found online) to support your analysis and be cited according to current APA. You will find the Self-Assessment Activities in Connect.

These are the activities you must complete. They are found at the end of the indicated chapter.
