MODULE 1MODULE 1

Complete this Module's Learning Activities

Learning activities:

Complete all the module readings in preparation for the discussion participation in Module 2 and 3.

Ensure you are familiar with the case study assigned by your learning facilitator. Begin to formulate

your main discussion post.

Particular attention is drawn to the Case Study, which requires careful review to grasp the range of

issues (e.g. project program, governance, reporting, risk management, budgetary and �nancial

management) including contract and procurement aspects.

Re�ection is a key element of the learning journey and you are encouraged to:

Research and look back at the history (when, what, how and who) associated with the Case Study project and the positive outcomes it aims to generate over the whole-of-life of the procurement;

Exchange ideas with other students to improve their understanding of all Learning Resources (Essential, Highly Recommended and Other Learning Resources) through the discussion forum looking at particular issues from sub-topics in Module 1 as applied to the Case Study and explore ideas and thoughts on what they would do in certain situations.

Important Note: As part of the engagement for Module 2 you will be assigned to Groups (with up to

4 members per group). The aim is for students to get to know each other and establish Virtual

Teams and team guidelines. Reference is also drawn to the Essential Learning Resource (Virtual

Team Pyramid).
