Welcome to our Capstone Project class! Our Continuing Education students are welcoming projects that will enable them to prove that they have mastered the project management principles and work practices, as established by Project Management Institute.

If you have one project (or more) that involves assistance with your community outreach, social media planning, marketing, planning your business expansion or re-opening with a new Post-COVID strategy, we are able to help.

Our projects run from May to July 2023 and involve groups of a minimum of 4 students working 35 hours per student, inclusive of the time required to manage the project. The actual effort dedicated to your deliverable is estimated to 22-28 hours per student. If your project requires additional resources, the groups can be resized to accommodate your body of work. The project proposed timeline can also be adapted to your specific needs.

For each Capstone project, students will deliver:

1. The Main Project Deliverable(s) established: Community Outreach Plan, Marketing Plan, Business Plan, Marketing Strategy, Website Development Plan, etc. and

2. The Capstone Project standard set of Project Management Deliverables showing the Project Management methodology applied by students to complete the Main Project Deliverable(s) that may also serve as a project deliverable(s), as follows:

• Project Charter: Addresses the Capstone project activities
• Stakeholder Register: Describes the stakeholders
• Work Breakdown Structure (WBS): a visual representation outlining the structure of the project activities
• Schedule: Gantt chart, showing project milestones and dependencies
• Risk Register: tailored to the Capstone project products
• Budget: not focused on student activities, tailored to the products/outcome of the Capstone project deliverables
• Project Status Report: produced twice during the term, outlining variances
