Directions

Before starting this activity, review the Required Resources for this module. You will find additional information specific to this assignment in the Supporting Materials section below.

Use the template provided in the What to Submit section to write a cohesive Agile team charter that briefly describes the SNHU Travel project and suggests some behaviors and communication practices for your team.
