We have chosen to talk about Emirates Airlines and my task is to write about foreign language training to staff.
Assignment overview:
In groups, students are required to produce a short video on the topic of Training and
Development (T&D) interventions within a Hospitality-related business. You should self-select working teams of approx. 6 members per team (subject to student numbers) and agree on which organisation to base your research; there can be no duplication of organisations. Each individual is required to submit a 500-word critical analysis of a particular T&D intervention for their organisation.
Overall aim:
Through this project students will be able to demonstrate their ability to work in groups and think creatively, using their combined problem-solving skills and research skills. Students will demonstrate their critical thinking skills and their ability to apply these to an organisational issue, justifying how T&D can support both individual and organisational performance.
Each individual in the group must select one T&D intervention (each individual must select a different one) and identify the strengths and weaknesses of this for the particular organisation. The individual critical analysis should be 500 words long and be supported with secondary sources and these should be referenced correctly using APA guidelines. This individual piece of work should be submitted through TII as a Word document.
This is how the paper must be looked like:
1. Introduction
A brief introduction to the organisation and to the
training intervention you have selected.
2. Main Body
A critical analysis of your chosen T&D intervention in
the context of your organisation. You should clearly
identify the strengths and weaknesses for the
particular organisation. Your claims must be
supported with secondary research.
3. Conclusions and Recommendations
Conclude whether on the basis of your discussion,
you would recommend this T&D intervention to the
organisation, justifying your claims.
4. References (not included in the word count)
Your reference list should appear at the end of your
document. Each source you cite in your discussion
must appear in your reference list; likewise, each
entry in the reference list must be cited in your text.
APA guidelines should be adhered to.

Side important notes must be followed:
1. Make sure the word count is 500 words and the rest of the word count has to be in bullet points after the reference page so I can present the findings as a presentation (my part which is foreign language traning).
2. Make sure to follow the APA format guidelines files as the professor is strict on that.
