Overview of Assessment

Task 1 – Organisation Profile - Based on comprehensive research and analysis students will evaluate a specific organisation in their industry of choice and will decide if it aligns to their skills, attributes and values.  Is it a good organisational fit?

In the analysis students will be required to make a decision on:

• Does the organisation align to their skills, attributes and values?
• Is the organisation a suitable one in which to commence/continue their career?

Task 2 – Leader Profile - Students will be required to profile an inspiring leader from a sector of the community.  Students will reflect on the leaders ‘journey’ and will ultimately assess how this person’s experience may impact on their own professional career planning.
