Assessment weighting 60%
(assesses all learning outcomes )
Students will submit an individual report (4,000-5,000 words, 10%) which is the culmination of a consultancy project with suggestions for action. Students must justify their approach to the management of the project and data collection and take into account corporate accountability, ethics and professionalism and any organisational constraints in developing their conclusions and recommendations.
Proposed template for the report (but you must make your report specific to your case study organisation and your findings):Business Consultancy Project (BCP)
