Project Guidelines



1. Group Formation



? Students must form groups consisting of 5-6 members. If a group exceeds 6 members, final


approval from the lecturer is required.

between the group and the lecturer.


? It is recommended that each group includes students from different academic disciplines,


such as Accounting, Finance, Management, and Marketing.

2. Project Guidelines



a) Project Overview:



? Each group will develop a comprehensive business plan for a unique Learning and


Development Centre or Skill Development Centre in Hong Kong. The centre will focus


on teaching specific skills and fostering personal growth or wellness, with an emphasis on


integrating cutting-edge technology and holistic approaches.


? The business plan should include progressive lessons that learners can advance through,


ensuring a structured and continuous learning experience.


? The plan should incorporate innovative solutions that cater to the modern needs of


learners, ensuring the business model is competitive and relevant to current trends and


demands in Hong Kong's dynamic environment.


? It is essential to ensure that the business plan is practical and feasible within the context


of Hong Kong's market.


? The centre will operate as a subsidiary of a Hong Kong-based corporation that is registered


in Hong Kong, conducts local business operations, and is listed on the main board of the


Hong Kong Stock Exchange, showcasing its strong local business presence.


? The selection of the Hong Kong-listed corporation for this venture must be approved by


the lecturer. It is essential that the centre aligns with the corporation's strategic objectives


and offers potential benefits to the corporation.


? The centre is scheduled to launch on 1 October 2025, operating under standard business


conditions.

stock shares or bank loans. The budget for the centre should be between HK$5 million


and HK$10 million, fully funded by the chosen Hong Kong-based corporation.



c) Project Management and Communication:

lecturer, report any significant issues that arise within the group, and attend the weekly


lectures, consultation sessions and/or workshops. Please note that the schedule for


consultation sessions may be subject to change.

PowerPoint presentation, Final Business Plan, and PowerPoint presentation of the


Business Plan.


Each group member will rate the contributions of other group members. If a member


receives a poor rating, their mark for the assessed assignment will be deducted


accordingly. It is important for all students to contribute fairly to the project.



5. Resolution of Conflicts within the Group



A group is formed by individuals working together towards a common goal. However,


differences in communication and working styles among group members may lead to conflicts


that can impede progress.



When conflicts arise, students should:


address problems as they arise instead of ignoring them;


discuss any issues in the presence of all group members;


avoid blaming each other for past failures and instead focus on identifying necessary changes;


strive to reach a mutual understanding that all group members agree upon.


Each group has one opportunity to remove a non-contributing member after the submission of


the Environmental Analysis Report, using the peer evaluation system. Each member can submit


the Environmental Analysis Peer Evaluation Form, along with valid supporting documents such


as the Minutes of Group Meeting and group conversation records, to demonstrate that the


concerned member has not made any contribution to the group project. The deadline for


submitting these documents is 23 February 2025 at 23:59 HKT. The lecturer will make the final


decision on whether the concerned member will be allowed to continue working in the group or


will be asked to work on the remaining parts of the project alone. This decision will be


communicated on or before 1 March 2025. It is important to note that no group member can


CCBS4020 Integrated Project Project Guidelines


be removed after 1 March 2025. For any subsequent issues with group members, the peer


evaluation system can be used to report non-contributing members.


If conflicts persist or further assistance is needed, students should seek help and advice from their


supervisor.


6. Attitude of the Group


Each group is responsible for taking the initiative to seek advice from the supervisor and keeping


the supervisor informed of their progress. It is important to actively engage with the supervisor


and maintain open lines of communication throughout the project.


Please note that the project supervisor may provide feedback, both positive and negative, on your


work. Embrace this feedback as an opportunity for growth and improvement.

well-organised.

different business functions, and limited ability to develop a business plan.


There is limited evidence of analytical thinking as well as the presentation is


not well-structured and organised.

business functions, and lack of ability in developing a business plan. The
