CISM study material · question 519 of 1000

NIST distinguishes a learning goal from a learning objective. Which pairing is correct?

  1. A goal is measurable; an objective is aspirational
  2. A goal is learner-centred and describes what the participant will be able to do, while an objective is organisation-centred and describes the competency the organisation needs to build
  3. A goal applies to a single course and the material it carries, while an objective applies to the whole programme and the competencies it is expected to build across the organisation
  4. A goal is written from the organisation's perspective describing the intended competency; an objective states what the developer wants the participant to do afterwards
Show the answer

Answer: D. A goal is written from the organisation's perspective describing the intended competency; an objective states what the developer wants the participant to do afterwards

SP 800-50r1 defines a goal as a general statement from the organisational or instructional perspective describing the intended competency, and objectives as specific statements describing what the developer wants the participant to do after the activity.
