Learners will conduct an overview of your business and gain an understanding of your industry and competitive landscape. As a participating organization, you can direct their research by providing particular areas of interest and context on challenges you face, but their review will be a general one that takes in the organization as a whole. By allowing learners to perform an unbiased assessment and review, you’ll receive unique insights in your area of interest.

Project Examples

Requirements

Learners will identify strengths, weaknesses and areas of opportunity. They will provide recommendations to address your business needs and insights into areas of potential growth.

Recommendations can include, but are not limited to:

◦ A strategic plan developed for your organization to help you solve a problem or take advantage of an opportunity.
◦ A strategic analysis conducted on a selected part or area of your organization.
◦ A case study developed on a selected part of or situation within your organization.
◦ An intervention developed to address your organizations issue; for example, a workshop or training activity. The intervention should be broad-based enough to demonstrate the program-level outcomes.
◦ A consulting report developed to analyze a problematic issue within your organization; the issue and analysis should be broad-based enough to demonstrate program-level outcomes.

Your organization may propose other project types for the Capstone project so long as we can identify how the proposed project satisfies the requirement of demonstrating the competencies & program-level outcomes. The final project will result in recommendations, next steps, or some other type of actionable, evidence-based takeaways for the intended audience or user in your organization, or subject of the project.
