Q-1. Scenario: Congratulations!! You have been hired as a Project Manager by the Ontario Ministry of Colleges and Universities to plan out a training program to help Ontario Faculty better deliver online learning. These training modules will be developed for online distribution and delivery. The target is for this training to launch September 2023, so that faculty can implement for their courses. Planning starts January 1, 2022. You can assume that you will be developing this online training from the beginning.

Instructions: Make assumptions about what you would consider to be "in-scope" when delivering this type of a project and first draft of the project plan for your senior manager to review. Be sure to include all the important elements that you typically would find on a Microsoft Project Plan. This is a first draft, so 4 "Grandparent" work packages will be sufficient, and "level 2 - parent" details should share at least 5 activities for each work package. Feel free to make assumptions where necessary.

The preferred software to answer this question is MS Project. If for some reason you can't access a copy, then spreadsheet (eg. excel) or table (eg. word) just as we had walked through in the review. Be sure to PDF your answer, before attaching as your answer.

Q-2 You are the project manager of a large wedding event. You are in the execution phase of the project and the invitations to the event have been sent and the venue booked. The wedding couple inform you that they want to invite 50 more people than originally planned.

Q-4. Every end is a new beginning". Now that you've finished this semester, and can turn your attention to spring/summer semester and beyond, what project would you like to accomplish? This project should be important to you and can be paid or volunteer. It can be professional or a passion-project you've always wanted to tackle. (Consider this exam question as "your sign" to make it happen

Remember a project has a clear end point, and usually involves coordinated activities to achieve a particular aim. State the project that you are going to make happen by the end of 2023. Applying the learning from this course, list out the major stages, steps, tools and/or activities that you would go through in managing this project from start to finish. This is not a project plan, but rather an application of the project lifecycle or the step-by-step framework you used in your team projects.

Show off what you learned from this course, by applying it to your personal project. State your project and why it is important to you. List out 10 high level steps (in order) that you would go through in your approach when completing this project from start to finish. For each of these points, explain and expand using a bullet-point example, how that step would be applied to your specific personal project.
