You are required to identify and select a project that you have worked on, whether as a
project manager or project team member. If you have not worked on a project before or you
are unable to select a suitable project based on your work experiences, you should select a
project that you know about and have sufficient access to the projects information.
Remember, the project that you select (the case) should have already been
completed/finished, implemented, or executed.
If you decide to select a project outside of your work experiences, there are several completed
projects in your local community, your country, the region, or internationally that you may be
able to use as a case for this assignment. There are no restrictions on the type of project that
you select or decide to work with, however please be deliberate in your selection or when
choosing a project to work with. You should avoid selecting a project for which genuine and

conceptual stage.
