An important aspect of this assignment is to show you the depth and breadth of your education. As you’ll learn, there is a great deal of overlap with respect to the training and educational requirements of each position. In doing your reviews, take a moment and reflect upon the courses, assignments, and experiences you’ve been exposed to during your time at APUS and how they’ve helped prepare you for the job market. Yes, it might seem like a bit of self-promotion, but it’s important for you to realize that upon graduation, you’ll be well qualified for the numerous job prospects that may come your way!

After researching the child and family development related careers below write two thorough and succinct paragraphs summarizing the job responsibilities and career outlook for each. The Occupational Outlook Handbook (http://www.bls.gov/oco/) may be a helpful resource.

Once the 12 sets of paragraphs are complete, compile them into a single APA formatted paper using the career titles as in-text headings. End the paper with a two to three paragraphs on which of the careers is most appealing and which is least appealing to you and explain why.

Week 3: Feasibility of Your Design Proposal and Importance of Communication

Capsone clinical question:

Will there be an increase in UTIs when placing a foley catheter in pregnant patients in the first trimester for an ultrasound vs. not placing a catheter?”

This week’s graded discussion topic relates to the following Course Outcome (CO).

CO3 Communicates effectively with patient populations and other healthcare providers in managing the healthcare of individuals, families, aggregates, and communities. (PO 3)

Now that you have identified your capstone change project, it is time to look at its feasibility.

What tangible and intangible resources will be needed to implement your project?

What improved outcomes do you anticipate will occur that could indicate the project produced a successful return on investment (ROI) of these resources? How will you communicate your plan for change with key decision makers so that they will support the allocation of the resources you are seeking.

My clinical question is : “Will there be an increase in UTIs when placing a foley catheter in pregnant patients in the first trimester for an ulCapstone

I only need the summary part. PLZ just be summarizing what was discussed in the report (word file).

Part 1

Information Requirements Determination (IRD) Project Component

Based on your consulting company’s initial work in discovering the business needs of Mid-Century Modern Décor Unlimited (MCMDU), you now have the following additional information about your client company’s processes that will need to be supported by the planned inventory information system:

1. Addition of new item to inventory system: the marketing/sales staff, in cooperation with the manufacturing staff, transmits the basic information on new products to be added to inventory management on a paper form brought to the inventory management office. This form must contain approval signatures of the Vice President for Operations and the Vice President for Sales. Upon receipt of a correct form (as determined by the Inventory Management staff), the inventory information for the new item is added to the appropriate Microsoft Excel 2010 workbook(s).
2. Recurring inventory report: the inventory is reported on a monthly basis in printed form and distributed through interoffice mail to the owner, vice presidents, and managers of the manufacturing and marketing/sales departments.
3. Ad-hoc inventory reports: an ad-hoc report on one or more inventory items may be requested by the owner, vice presidents, and managers of the manufacturing and marketing/sales departments. These requests must be created on a “Special Report Request” paper form brought to the inventory management office. The inventory management staff attempts to produce these reports within two business days of the time of the request.
4. The inventory management staff will also create an ad-hoc report in printed form upon phone request from either the owner or the company vice presidents. There is not a special form for this request: the inventory management will jot the specifications for the needed report down on paper when called by these individuals with a request. The inventory management staff attempts to produce these reports within one business day of the time of the request.
5. The inventory management staff maintains the templates for inventory information from the e-commerce retailer customers within a file folder on a hard drive on the PC computer system in the Inventory Management office. Recall from the Background Information section that e-commerce retailers will generally require that their company-specific templates be used when transmitting inventory-related information such as complete product descriptions. Once the templates are populated with the requested information, the Inventory Management staff can transmit that information to the e-commerce retailers by logging in through the retailer’s extranet portal for MDU.

The Tasks:

Obviously, you will be facing a challenge in effectively determining systems requirements for this project. Based on the information provided in Chapter 6 of the course textbook and web-based research, your team’s task here is to select an overall strategy for determining system requirements. In addition, you have decided to develop an interview process with various employees of the company to assist in determining the information requirements needed to support the development of a system that meets the scope of the planned system. Create this deliverable in a Microsoft Word document.

Your deliverable for this component of the team project is to include the following components:

1. A project scope statement: see the associated definition/description on page 199 of the course textbook and the example portrayed in Figure 5-10 on page 134 of the course textbook.
2. An analysis of systems requirements determination strategies (review Chapter 6) in order to select the optimal strategy for this specific information systems project for MDU. This component must contain an identification and discussion of the potential strategies followed by your well justified recommendation for proposing the optimal strategy for information requirements determination (IRD) for the planned system. Be aware that a single method of IRD is almost never adequate to gather the needed information for a systems development project.
3. An interview plan as detailed in interview outlines followed by specific questions (you should use both close-ended and open-ended questions) that you plan to ask in initial interviews with (1) Alexis Harrison, the company owner and (2) company employees (specify which ones). Note that you may also choose to employ additional interviewing methods (see Chapter 6) for obtaining this type of information.

Required Format:

The required format of this component is five clearly labeled sections:

1. An introduction of the background and intended purpose of the specified tasks (see above section)
2. The Project Scope Statement
3. The systems requirements determination strategy (this may be some combination of two or more strategies identified and discussed in Chapter 6)
4. The interview designs, with the target for each interview design clearly indicated
5. A summary/conclusions section

APA format is not required for this component. Submit your completed work for Part 1 in a single Microsoft Word document or Adobe PDF file. Only the designated team leader for this project component is to submit a copy of the team’s completed work.

Riordan Virtual Organization and Environmental Scan Paper

I am looking for something like this use bottom references to gather information. Plagiarism less than 5% 300-350 words. 

Researching Riordan Corporation strategic
direction, measures and directives for competitive advantage proposals brings
up one key initiative. Environmental sustainability, better known as “Going
Green”, was discussed in limited internal communication, but there is no
strategic planning initiative to further the objective. A
company with a good record of environmental sustainability may create a
competitive advantage in terms of attracting and keeping loyal consumers,
employees, and investors. Being known as a socially responsible firm may
provide a company with social capital, the goodwill of key stakeholders that
can be used for competitive advantage. (Wheelen & Hunger)  Additionally, the concept of reduce; recycle
and reuse will decrease resource use, which will increase profit margin. A survey of 140 U.S. firms revealed that
being more socially responsible regarding environmental sustainability resulted
not only in competitive advantages but also in cost savings.(2002
Sustainability Survey Report)  Innovative
ideas would be to reduce or replace the use of environmentally hazardous raw
material, use of naturally sustainable material and recycle/reuse any byproduct
of the manufacturing process. Furthermore, programs to reduce pollution can
actually reduce waste and maximize resource productivity. (Wheelen &
Hunger)

Other examples of benefits received from
being socially responsible are;

They can attract
outstanding employees who prefer working for a responsible firm. This is one of
Riordan Corps strategic performance measures. Another benefit, they are more
likely to be welcomed into a foreign country. Riordan has operations in China
and could benefit in horizontal expansion. A final benefit of note, their environmental concerns may enable
them to charge premium prices and gain brand loyalty, a definite customer
enhancement opportunity. (Wheelen & Hunger)

As a term, sustainability may include more
than just ecological concerns and the natural environment. In order for a
business corporation to be sustainable, that is, to be successful over a long
period of time, it must satisfy all of its economic, legal, ethical, and
discretionary responsibilities. (Wheelen & Hunger)  An excellent opportunity to satisfy part of
these responsibilities is this Going Green initiative. And with is comes
corporate strategy change. In a classic study of large U.S. corporations such
as DuPont, General Motors, Sears, and Standard Oil, Alfred Chandler concluded
that structure follows strategy—that
is, changes in corporate strategy lead to changes in organizational structure.
(Chandler) Changes in the environment tend to be reflected in changes in a
corporation’s strategy, thus leading to changes in a corporation’s structure.
Strategy, structure, and the environment need to be closely aligned; otherwise,
organizational performance will likely suffer.(Jennings
& Seaman). But proper strategy will expand performance and profitability
for corporation sustainability.

Part 1: Confidence Intervals

1. Why
   is it often impossible to know the actual value of any population
   parameter? Give an example of a population parameter that you cannot
   calculate, but that you can estimate.
2. A sample can be used to
   estimate a population parameter. How does the sample size affect the
   estimate? If the sample is larger, what will this do to the error E?
3. Use
   the Confidence Interval formula above and calculate the 95% confidence
   interval for any population mean of your choice. Write down (invent) the
   sample size (be sure it is 30 or above), the sample mean, and the
   sample standard deviation. Then, calculate the confidence interval.
   Remember, you are inventing all the values, so no two posts should look
   the same.
4. Use Excel and your invented values to calculate the
   confidence interval. Include and compare the results. (Tutorials can be
   found in Doc Sharing). Again, remember that your sample size must be 30
   or above.
