This study intends to explore the influence of learning systems (formal and informal) and knowledge process integration on individual level learning outcomes. This article reviews the extensive literature on the role of learning systems to acquire, disseminate, interpret, and store knowledge within the organizational purview, which subsequently leads toward learning outcomes in the workplace. A methodical review of the literature has been conducted to explore the connection among learning systems, knowledge process, and learning outcomes. Based on the theoretical underpinnings, a conceptual framework has been proposed. Furthermore, this study incorporates a discussion on Huber’s (1991) learning components for achieving better learning outcomes. Findings of the study outline that the role of informal learning is preferential than formal learning system, which harmonizes with knowledge processes and subsequently affects organizational learning outcomes. Authors point out the potentiality of contextual factors to affect the aforesaid relationship. Later part of the study discusses implication, limitations, and future suggestions for the researchers. © 2017, K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research.
