Project Design
Course Number PS 2003
This course will provide an opportunity for the student to facilitate a process for identifying a specific
problem in an actual industry or business environment relevant to the student's specialty area. The
student will outline a formal plan of action for identifying the problem. The plan must include a broad scan
of the specific area/operation selected including the names and titles of the individuals surveyed for input.
The product will be the development of a formal needs assessment which identifies deficiencies or areas
of improvement. The needs should be prioritized based on feasibility, cost, and urgency.
The three core competencies that I learned in this course:
1. The purpose of the project--We were asked to choose a company that had a problem within the
company. We were asked to research the problem and find a solution to the problem. I chose to
help a business that I am associated with and the problem with advertising and their website
production. The problem does exist and I did have a purpose for the project.
2. Research Methods and Procedures--I used the internet to search the web because I wanted to
see and research how advertising could boost your business. Every website I found talked about
proper advertising and how it could benefit your company. Not only did I research the internet, I
used a survey just to see what type of advertisement people were used to and the type that
people liked. It's amazing the findings when you put out a survey.
3. Analysis and Findings--I did some thorough research on advertising, handed out some surveys,
and found a good web developer to assist with updating the website. With my findings, I learned
that advertising can and will boost your client's interest in your business. You must have the right
advertising and the best website that will spark your client's eyes.

The three core competencies that I learned in this course:
1. The first competency that I learned in this class is Personnel Management is
concerned with managing people at work. Such people or personnel does not simply
refer to rank and file employees or unionized labour but also includes higher
personnel and non-unionized labour. In other words, it covers all the levels of
personnels, including blue-collared employees (craftsmen, foremen, operatives and
labourers) and white-collared employees (professional, technical and kindred
workers, managers, officials and proprietors, clerical workers and sales workers). The
shape and form that personnel administrative activity takes, however, may differ
greatly from company to company and to be effective, it must be tailored to fit the
individual needs of each organization.
2. Second, it is concerned with employees, both as individuals as well as a group, the
aim being to get better results with their collaboration and active involvement in the
organization's activities i.e. it is a function or process or activity aiding and directing
workmen and women in maximizing their personnel contribution.
3. Third, Personnel Management is concerned with helping the employees to develop
their potentials and capacities to the maximum possible extent, so that they may
derive great satisfactions from their job. This task takes into consideration four basic
elements, namely, the capacities, interests opportunities and personally of the
employee.
