(3 semester credits)

Adult learning takes place in a wide variety of formal and informal settings. Each of these environments has its own organizational structure, or "system," that must be understood and considered when designing and implementing learning strategies. Understanding the fundamentals of organizational behavior, systems theory, and change management is essential for facilitating innovation and performance enhancement. In this course, key issues such as policy, advocacy, complexity, change, organizational development, and group dynamics are addressed in the context of developing transformational experiences for adult learners.
