Human Resource Management

Final Project Guidelines

In the Final Project for this course, you demonstrate your understanding of the

major topics presented by applying these concepts to a government or non-profit

organization of your choice.

For the Final Project, you select a government (federal, state, or local) or nonprofit

organization with which you are familiar. This could be an organization for which you

currently work, have worked, know about from others, or have learned about through

academic resources and/or media. With this organization in mind, you explore the

various topics of the course. As you progress through the readings and assignments

think about how these topics pertain to the organization you selected. The Learning

Resources, Discussions, and Application Assignments all assist you in completing

each section of the Final Project.

In your Final Project, you analyze and assess the following areas of the organization

based on the processes and principles related to human resource management in a

government or non-profit organization:

 Mission and goals of the organization

 Strategic human resource management

 Applicable legal and ethical codes

 Diversity considerations

 Labor unions, privatization, and outsourcing

 Recruitment and selection methods

 Compensation and benefits

 Performance management and development

For the sections provide your analysis and assessment based on the processes and

I submitted two files that are part 1 and 2 of the projects The outline my instructor sent me these notes there are problems with this submission. First, the outline is generic, it does not speak directly to an analysis of the subject organization… make the outline real, and allow others to review it before you start writing; this can be a great tool. Second, you do not offer annotated citations as instructed. Annotations provide summaries of the bibliographic citations so that you have more reference to their content, it is a valuable research tool for you to use in the futurw
