Second is group assessment, where you have to complete a change management plan for a company. You can choose your own groups within first four weeks of the semester. If you have not formed a group within first four weeks, you will be assigned to a group randomly in week 5 of the course. Group assessments need to be completed based on discussions in your group. Each group will submit only one completed output. Details can be found on Learn. Third is the final exam. The final exam will consist of 10 short-answer questions (all compulsory to complete).
