Overview

The project charter provides an overview of the proposed project and is a working plan for how it will be executed. It contains key information including the who, what, when, and where of the project and how it will be conducted. For this assessment, you will use information from the interview you conducted in Assessment 1. Use the Project Charter Template [DOCX] to develop the first part of the project charter.

Drawing from the gap, need, or opportunity for improvement identified in the leadership interview, begin to develop a project charter for the topic. Although this project should address a relevant gap, data or contextual evidence may not be available. In that case, you may use fictitious information for this assessment or obtain data from the general literature (make sure to cite the source).
