timeframe for the plan, for example, 12 months.

Complete Section 2 of your Project Portfolio. Submit this to your assessor for
feedback. Your assessor will respond to you with feedback as required.

policies and procedures relating to intellectual property, ethics and privacy and

procedures or the business you are working on for this assessment. It can be
approximately 1 – 2 pages.

Work on Section 3 of your Project Portfolio.

ethics and privacy.
Each person will have a turn (approximately 15 minutes per person) to present their
policies and procedures. Either during the presentation or at the end you are to
seek the views and opinions of your team on the policies and procedures. This will
ensure an exchange of ideas too.
