Guidelines
For this Course Project, you will evaluate, analyze, and apply what you have learned in this course by creating a team management plan and a communications management plan for a project you choose, either through research, experience, or using the case studies from the textbook. The team management plan is due in Week 5 while the communications management plan is due in Week 7. In Week 8, a presentation of the major elements of both the team management plan and the communications management plan is due.
Due weeks (1-5)
The team management plan will describe how the team members for the project will be acquired and the length of time they will be needed for the project. The project team is the group of individuals who complete the work for the project and is overseen by the project manager. Project team members can be part time or full time, depending on the project and the organization. For example, a programmer working on an IT project may also be working on other projects so can dividing time between each project. A carpenter may be full time on a construction project during a specific phase.
