Informal or “Less Formal” Learning?

In order to assess how people define “informal learning” in the workplace, Jane Hart did a survey for an eLearning Guild report and asked respondents for their definitions. – “The first question asked respondents to select five words or phrases they felt best described the term “informal learning.” The purpose of this question was to see if respondents understood the term informal learning similarly to how experts understand it.”  The chart above shows the responses.
