designing a training program to be conducted for a sport or recreation organization in Hong Kong. The organization chosen by the student should be one that the student is familiar with or went to doing the intern. Designed for the overall duration of two to three hours, the training program should serve to transfer some useful management knowledge/skills to the employees (not customers). Such management knowledge/skills can be safety, quality, customer service, communication, team-building, leadership, creativity, or ethics. Students are advised to stay focused and not to attempt training on too many knowledge/skills in one training program; otherwise, the project report may become complicated and difficult to write. For the project, no sport or recreation such as basketball, rock-climbing, or canoeing knowledge/skills, please.

Each student is required to do an individual project to assess his or her capability to apply the class learning in designing a training program to be conducted for a sport or recreation organization in Hong Kong. The organization chosen by the student should be one that the student is familiar with or went to doing the intern. Designed for the overall duration of two to three hours, the training program should serve to transfer some useful management knowledge/skills to the employees (not customers). Such management knowledge/skills can be safety, quality, customer service, communication, team-building, leadership, creativity, or ethics. Students are advised to stay focused and not to attempt training on too many knowledge/skills in one training program; otherwise, the project report may become complicated and difficult to write. For the project, no sport or recreation such as basketball, rock-climbing, or canoeing knowledge/skills, please. On the due date, each individual student should submit to SOUL a project written report (Microsoft WORD, soft copy) as the project outcome. It is important to note that this project should not be about a training program that already exists in the chosen organization. Instead, the project should be about a training program that is designed by the student, and the report should be written with the aims of proposing such a training program to and "seeking" approval from the organization. In case of any doubt, please feel free to contact the course instructor (derekcheng888@yahoo.com.hk). The written report (40% of total course assessment, 1500-1800 words, typed, double-spaced, 12 pt Times New Roman font, 1 inch all margins, A4 paper) should cover the following sections.
