Projects longer than two years may be used for both reports under either of the following conditions:

• The project has clearly defined work efforts which took place in parallel, each with their own

solution development and design activities and their own deliverables.

• The project had clearly defined phases that were executed in succession, each with its own

solution development and design activities and deliverables. Note that a second project

ACS | RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING INSTRUCTION DOCUMENT  2023 Page 4

phase that constructs and implements the solution developed by the first phase does not

meet this requirement. Depending on the nature of your role in each project, the Project Report should cover an appropriate

selection of factors. Appropriate factors will be determined based on the type of ICT project selected. Possible factors

include:

computing systems;

• Programming languages, design paradigms and implementation procedures adopted; • Database and/or file design and management techniques employed; • Network topologies, including size, distribution and security facilities installed; • Project Management and quality assurance techniques followed; • Internet application design, including database interactivity and security measures

Instructions

The following pages provide a template for your reports. When writing your reports please provide your own thoughts – do not just copy project documentation. Please use the first person in your discussion, so it is clear to the assessor what you did versus what

others did – say “I did X” rather than “X was done”. Diagrams from the project documentation may be helpful, but the text should be in your own words.

Please ensure that diagrams are relevant, readable, and help the assessor to understand what you did

as a member of the project team. If sections of the Project Report template (see below) are not relevant to your participation in the

project, then leave the section blank.

Focus on quality rather than quantity. Each Project Report should be no more than four or five pages in

length.
