The combination of informal, formal, internal, external describes what?

• A. categories of feedback
• B. levels of training
• C. types of evaluations
• D. methods of assessment

Answer: (C)

Informal and formal describe how an evaluation is carried out, while internal and external describe who conducts it. Together they define the different types of evaluations you can encounter. For example, an informal internal evaluation might be a quick supervisor check within the unit, while a formal external evaluation could be an official audit by an outside body. This differs from feedback categories (what is said in feedback), levels of training (how advanced the training is), or methods of assessment (the techniques used to measure performance).
