The Project Charter should explain the background of the organisation where this project will be carried out, the objectives of the project and the importance of this project to the organisation. The Charter includes a Business Case, Milestone Schedule, as well as any major problems or anticipated Risks with this project if they are known at this stage. The textbook provides detailed examples of what needs to be included in the Project Charter. These examples will assist in the development of the Project Charter for MyProject. The project could be from one of the following categories depending on the type of business a student is involved in: • an organisational project that a student is involved in as the organisation’s main line of business – to manage projects for your organisation or on behalf of others • an activity that a student is convinced would benefit from being handled as a project • an activity in which a student was involved in the past that was not carried out as a project, but one which you believe would have been managed better as a project. If you use this option you should describe how you would execute this activity now using the knowledge gained through this unit. The project should NOT be: • a wedding event • a project developing an App • a project implementing a change management initiative. Note:. Students are directed to the Activity to be completed at the end of Topic 1 The maximum word length for this part is 1,500 words excluding words used in any charts, templates, forms or diagrams that you have used to apply the knowledge areas. Format for Assessment Task 1 The format of the formal assessment task will be: • SCU Cover Sheet • Title page • Letter to Sponsor • Table of contents • Introduction (use an Appendix for background if necessary – see below) • Project Charter using appropriate headings • Reference list (Harvard referencing style is required) • Appendix will only include a background of the organisation for your unit assessor. All forms, charts, tables and diagrams should be included under the relevant sections of the assignment. The Appendix is NOT graded.
