Create a draft of the project charter/definition document based on the preliminary requirements for the course project - building a shed. Make sure that you complete all sections of the charter. Remove any comments or template instructions. Remember to spell and grammar check the project charter before submitting the assignment.

Project templates are often provided by an organization's project management office (PMO) so there is no need to create your own format, i.e. "reinvent the wheel". The Project Charter template can be found in this week's module.
