MSC: NCLEX: N/A
Answer: a
Informal learning experiences are those that take place outside a formal educational setting. A
person who cares for a disabled family member would gain knowledge and skill in providing
personal care. An education course, academic program, and credited classes all take place in a
formal educational setting.
