MGMT-420 Project Risk Management ALL ASSIGNMENTS, QUIZES AND FINAL EXAMS leading to A (95%!!!)

Objective

For this course, you will complete several weekly assignments and compile a Course Project paper. This paper involves the development of a risk management plan, commonly called an RMP, throughout the course.

While the weekly assignments are the basis for what you will be doing for the RMP, they are not the RMP itself. Your weekly assignments will assist you in the development of an RMP by completing some of the essential parts of the final paper. These various sections, which will follow your weekly assignments, have been developed according to the Deliverables schedule below.

Remember that your weekly assignments are built around the project that you will choose during Week 1.

The assignments for Weeks 1–6 are the basis of your project; the final paper, however, which is due in Week 7, will be built following the template on page 209 in Appendix A within the Practical Project Risk Management: The ATOM Methodology text. In addition, your final paper will focus on the top 20 risks you have identified.

Refer to the Deliverables section below for a comprehensive outline and schedule for your Course Project. Also see the Syllabus section ”Due Dates for Assignments & Exams” for due date information.
