Project Management of Renovation Bathroom.

Unit 3 Assignment - Project: Create Charter Instructions Now that you have selected a project, (for the purpose of this assignment, I chose to renovate my landlord's bathroom) you will begin to develop the "Project Charter" used to guide and support your work. In this assignment, you will leverage the Project Charter outline found in your textbook in Chapter 2, pages 42 - 45. Also, look at the example on pages 46-47 of Chapter 2. Your charter should resemble this example. Remember, you are creating your charter based on the project YOU selected in week one. Please review the Project Charter in the PMBOK found in the Herzing 24/7 Library. All assignments should be completed in a Word document using correct APA formatting (Headers, one-inch margins, and double spacing, title page and Reference page, etc.). Please complete the essay in a Microsoft Word document. This assignment requires a minimum of 2 sources. Please download and use this template for your charter.
