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]

INDIVIDUAL LEARNING GOALS The things that the learner sets to achieve for a specific period of time  Provide the benchmark againts which the learners can access their own progress in the program  Help determine what learning modules, activities and time frame will be used in the learning program. 

ILA IS A KEY INSTRUMENT TO MEASURE LEARNING’S PROGRAM

The learner’s broad learning goals and specific learning objectives;  The things the learner plans to do to achieve his/her learning objectives; and  The time frame for learning or achieving them. 

Long-Term Learning Goals “to get a job”  “to get a high school certificate”  “to learn to get along with people better”  “to get a driver’s license”  “to learn how to take better care of the environment”  “to enter a TESDA training program”  “to get into college” 

Short-Term Learning Goals  “to

read a letter from my uncle”  “to write to my daughter in Saudi”  “to read the Bilbe or Koran”  “to know what foods are healthy for my children”

I would like to be able to read the Bible, to participate more in church and to help my six year old daughter do well in school.

STEP 4 :

Signing the Individual learning Agreement

ILA



IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE LEARNERS AND THE INSTRUCTIONAL MANAGER / FACILITATOR SIGN THE ILA AFTER IT IS COMPLETED. 

SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT WILL REMIND THE INSTRUCTIONAL MANAGER / FACILITATOR OF HIS / HER COMMITMENT TO THE LEARNER AND HIS / HER ROLE TO ACHIEVE THE STATED LEARNING GOALS.

SIGNING THE INDIVIDUAL LEARNING AGREEMENT

By asking the learner to sign the Individual Learning Agreement, the Instructional Manager / Facilitator is helping the learner to make a commitment to his / her learning program.

Yes, You can change it or make a new one. You can change it:

 When you think you have finished learning a topic or  When you want to learn something else.

During the learning process you and your Instructional Manager will look at / review your learning agreement at least every two weeks.



Signing the learning agreement will: – Remind you of your commitment to the learning process – Remind your instructional manager of his / her responsibility to help you reach your learning goals

GO TO PEOPLE LOVE WITH THEM LIVE WITH THEM LEARN WITH THEM LINK YOUR KNOWLEDGE WITH THEIRS START WITH WHAT THEY HAVE WHEN YOU FINISH YOUR JOB THE PEOPLE WILL SAY WE DID IT ALL BY OURSELVES

Thank You ! God Bless !
