Objectives:
- Identify and analyse risk (financial, legal, environmental, HR);
- Create a plan for measuring and monitoring performance;
- Describe the process used to analyse strategic issues;
How the Assessment fits into the subject/course:
The context of the subject is engineering; however the content is applicable across a range of other contexts and is relevant to industry. The assessment focus is on risk management, risk assessment and risk mitigation plans.
Assessment Linkages of Assessment 1 and Assessment 2:
Assessment is used to inform and build knowledge for Assessment 2 allowing students to examine concepts and in detail throughout the delivery of the subject.
