Throughout your practicum experience, you have been designing and implementing a project. You will now assess that experience. Prior to beginning this paper, discuss the topics below with your preceptor/mentor. Include their feedback as well as your own. In a 1,250-1,500-word document, discuss the following topics:
What was the focus of your leadership project, the goals you set for yourself, and the overall objectives you hoped to achieve?
How did you discover this need for this project, and how did it fit into the organization’s philosophy and mission?
Did you encounter any real or potential barriers during your practicum experience related to your project?
Discuss how the outcomes of your project will be measured. Is your project one that is sustainable, or is it designed to be a single occurrence? What actions would be needed to ensure project sustainability?
Evaluate the success of your project. If you were not able to implement your project, discuss why. What are the next steps for the project? (My project won’t be implemented until the oncoming budget year because of budget issues)
Use a minimum of two peer-reviewed resources that are 5 years old or less as evidence to support your views.
