Be mindful of privacy concerns as you engage in this and future Discussions. Do not identify any organizations or individuals by name. Post on or before Day 3 a description of your proposed Practicum Project. Provide a brief rationale for your selected focus that incorporates references from the literature, specialization standards, regulatory standards, and/or other sources you have used to validate this project. Explain the overarching project goal, and list two or three measurable objectives that will help you meet the goal. Also, share any questions or concerns that your colleagues may be able to help you address as you proceed with planning for your Practicum Project. The Practicum Project Plan is a scholarly proposal for your project. Over the next few weeks, you develop elements of your plan and then integrate these elements in a 4- to 6-page scholarly paper. Refer to the Practicum Project Plan (PPP) Overview document provided in this week’s Learning Resources, for details about this assignment. Be sure to consider the project planning guidelines included in the document as you proceed with the development of your plan.

In developing your plan, it is important to review the scholarly literature, specialization standards, and/or regulatory standards that validate and shed light on your Practicum Project focus. You may also consider reaching out to professional organizations related to your topic and addressing any regulatory standards that may apply.

The overarching goal of your Practicum Project should be clearly defined, and you should develop two or three objectives that are specific, measurable, attainable, results-focused, and time-focused. Incorporate higher-order verbs from Bloom’s taxonomy (i.e., Application-level and above) as you create the objectives.

You may have questions or concerns about your Practicum Project, and your colleagues can offer support to help you move forward. Be sure to share any questions or concerns you have with them.
