This is the capstone subject in the Information Professional Strand. In this subject, students plan, carry out and evaluate a major professional information activity for a client. Concepts and techniques for the planning and management of projects to meet client needs are introduced at the beginning of the subject. A contract for the project is negotiated between the student, their client and their academic supervisor. Students are expected to work independently on their project, guided by consultations with their supervisor and discussion with a peer support group.
