Answer 1

You have a collation mismatch between the database collation (@RtnValue.Data) and the collation used in Objectives.LearningSysten.

Quickest solution may be to explicitly declare the collation in @RtnValue:

DECLARE @RtnValue table
(
    ColumnName VARCHAR(50),
    Data VARCHAR(50) COLLATE [insert required collation name]
)

This is a quick fix, however, you should check correct use of collations on database and table column level.
