Just passed my capstone for Bachelor of Science, Business - Human Resource Management

I felt like this last term was going to kill me, but I'm still alive. It's been a crazy two years with a full time job and being a full time parent of a preschooler, but it's all done now and I couldn't be happier.

Let me know if you have any questions or want any tips on a class.

Did your employer paid for your WGU? So the capstone is basically a 10 page paper?

The company I work for has a $3,000 per year tuition reimbursement program that you are paid after completing classes. Since WGU is a flat rate per term it was actually difficult to get the reimbursed from the 3rd party claim administrator if you didn't know how to submit the documents correctly. All said and done my employer paid for $9,000 of my $12,000.

The capstone is an 8-part business plan that should be, according to their page count recommendations, 16 and 26 pages. With that said though, I really think to fully flesh out some of the sections you would be in the 30+ range.

Since my degree is in Human Resources I had to design an HR-related company, and my capstone came in at 33 pages and the 2 tab spreadsheet.

On to that masters!

On to hibernation. I'm going to go to bed at 1900 for a straight month. Wife already approved it.

deleted 0.4957 What is ^^^this?

Oh no I am not. It's funny, but the only reason I started school is because my new job required a degree and they didn't care what it was in. I program collective bargaining agreements into a timekeeping system so all the union rules are enforcement through automation. Before that I taught process improvement/Toyota Production System/Lean DMS. With those two skills combined I figured an HR degree would be easiest.

Congratulations!!!!

Congrats to you and your hard work!

How long did the capstone take you and how much support is available during the project? only part of the program I'm nervous about.

And of course, congratulations!!!

2 hours of reviewing material / templates / etc. 10 days of writing @ ≈ 2 hours a night 4 hours of proofreading and revision 3.5 days of waiting for grading

Congrats!!!!! I'm in the HR program as well and will finish next month. Just started on the capstone!

Awesomeness - you can do it! Let me know if you have any questions and I'll try my best to help.

Newbie question, what the the Os and Ps mean?

Objective vs Performance. Objective is a test based final to pass, while Performance is an assignment (usually an essay). Some classes have both.

Congratulations! I'm starting the HR program in November and I can't wait!

Well, seeing how it's September you have to wait. Once November comes though, hit it hard and don't let up.

About this Course

This specialization provides a robust introduction to the key principles, policies, and practices of human resource management, with a focus on understanding managerial choices and constraints, acquiring and onboarding talent, managing employee performance, and rewarding employees. The capstone project provides learners with the opportunity to apply these key principles and practices to a real-world workplace (including a learner's own workplace if desired). Specifically, the capstone project will involve identifying the key human resources challenges for a workplace--including the most pressing motivational, selection, performance evaluation, and reward issues. And for each of these areas, learners will devise a multi-step action plan for addressing the challenges identified.

Syllabus - What you will learn from this course

Welcome and getting started.

The capstone project provides you with the opportunity to apply the key principles and practices presented in the four courses of the HRM specialization to a real-world workplace. In this first module, you will get acquainted with the overall expectations of this capstone course and identify the work unit that will be the focus of their your capstone project.

Milestone 1: Identifying the Internal and External Context

The first major milestone in the capstone project is identifying the internal and external needs, pressures, and constraints. In this module, you will be prompted to think about the major elements of the internal and external context and will create a draft description of these elements to share with other learners. You will also review others' work to provide guidance and to help reflect upon their own context.

Milestone 2: Recruiting and Selecting Employees

The second major milestone in the capstone project is to identify the recruitment and selection needs of the work unit you identified. In this module, you will be prompted to think about the major elements of the hiring process and will create a draft description of these elements to share with other learners. You will also review others' work to provide guidance and to help reflect upon their own work.

Milestone 3: Managing Employee Performance

The third major milestone in the capstone project is identifying the Performance Management processes that are in place to facilitate effective employee performance and growth. In this module, you will be prompted to think about the major elements of the performance management and will create a draft description of these elements to share with other learners.You will also review others' work to provide guidance and to help reflect upon their own context.

Milestone 4: Managing Employee Compensation and Rewards

To reach the final milestone of the capstone project, you will identify and analyze the organization's rewards practices. This includes an analysis of compensation strategy, benchmarking practices, and an analysis of the pay mix. You will receive feedback from others and also review others' work to provide guidance and to help reflect upon their own context.

Submitting the Final Project

The previous modules have focused on developing and getting constructive feedback on the major elements of the capstone project. In this module, you should use all of that feedback to submit a final version of the project that will be graded by other learners. You must also grade other projects which will expose you to HR challenges and solutions in contexts different from their own.

Reflection and Congratulations

The work is now done! This short module provides an opportunity for you to reflect upon the specialization, and to be congratulated on your success by the instructional team.

TOP REVIEWS FROM HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT CAPSTONE: HR FOR PEOPLE MANAGERS

I just finished the Specialization, and I am very thankful to the professors and to those who provided helpful feedback in each tasks. It was a fruitful journey. Thank you!

Good way to apply the theory but it would make more sense if a Prof. can correct the the final project. Many people do not take the course too serious and responses and feedback are vague.

Excellent course. The capstone integrates all learning from the course and builds a comprehensive project that is relevant to one's current area of professional practice. I highly recommend.

The course includes assignments that require you to expand your learning from the four foundational courses. It is appropriately challenging.

About the Human Resource Management: HR for People Managers Specialization

Do you have people reporting to you that need managing? Or perhaps you want to consider a career in human resources? Or freshen up your HR knowledge?

This specialization provides a robust introduction to the key principles, policies, and practices of human resource management. The specialization begins with a foundational course that considers alternative approaches to managing human resources, provides a background to the U.S. legal context in which employees are hired, fired, rewarded, and managed, and outlines the different reasons that people are motivated to work. The remaining three courses tackle three core areas that all managers should understand: hiring employees, evaluating their performance, and rewarding them. Throughout the courses, an accessible, scientific approach is embraced such that best practices and practical tips are informed by research, but presented in accessible, applied ways. Upon completing the specialization, learners will have a deeper understanding of what works in the workplace, including a toolkit of best practices for hiring, managing, and rewarding employees. The specialization will be valuable for managers and entrepreneurs taking on these responsibilities as well as anyone else interested in the fundamental principles of human resource management. The Capstone Project will provide an opportunity to apply this knowledge to a real situation, including your own organization or work unit if desired.

New way to access capstone work of previous grads.

To assist you with the culminating educational experience of completing a capstone for your degree , WGU has provided the Comprehensive Capstone Archive site. This Archive gives you access to the capstone work of other students in order to get an idea of how to proceed with your own individual capstone.

However, to make this experience more intuitive, seamless, and successful, WGU will be retiring this site and encouraging students to use the Model Capstone Archive site instead. Retiring the Comprehensive Capstone Archive will eliminate confusion about older, discontinued tasks or capstone models as well as the difficulty of finding pertinent capstones amid the thousands of examples housed there.

If you have given your permission, your work will continue to be added to the Comprehensive Capstone Archive through October 2015, but be advised that the site will be retired at the end of 2015. However, the Model Capstone Archive continues to be available for student use.

In addition to housing solid models of student work in most current degree programs, this archive also showcases superlative projects of students who have received the Capstone Excellence Award.

BS Business Management Capstone (5 Days)

Updated 3/31/18

This blog post is part of a series where I chronicle my advancement through WGU’s Bachelor of Science, Business – Information Technology Management degree. It includes detailed reports on my study methods and strategies as well as occasional tips and tricks. To see all entries in this series, click the “WGU” link under “Categories” on the left sidebar (bottom of the page if viewing on mobile)

The Capstone project is no easy task. I suppose it’s easier than Principles of Finance , but then again, so is a root canal. Here’s my advice:

Here’s how I completed this assignment in 5 days:

Day 1: Wrote the Executive Summary (yes, I know this is supposed to come last , but it’s required for the Portfolio, so I had to write it first)

Day 2: Wrote the Company Summary

Day 3: Wrote the Market Analysis

Day 4: (1) Wrote the Market Strategy, (2) wrote the Implementation Strategy

As of right now I haven’t gotten my assignment back, so I don’t actually know whether or not I passed. I’m 499th in the queue, so it might be a while. When I get it back, assuming that I passed, I’ll write up a final post about my experience with WGU. It’s been a positive one. I know I have a few regular readers and so I hope that these posts have been helpful.

I’ll do more of the wrap up in my next, and final, WGU post. Also, if I didn’t pass the Capstone for some reason, I’ll add an edit to this post and explain why and how to avoid my mistakes.

Update 3/30/2018:

I got the Capstone kicked back for revision. I used a lot of “interesting” language to describe how I felt about that (luckily there were no children present). It got it kicked back for three reasons:

Okay, that last one was my own fault. In my first reference, I’d forgotten to include an element, and then I based every other reference on that first flawed one. That was a stupid mistake, and I deserved it

Oh well, so it goes. I resolved the issues and resubmitted. When I did so I was 620 in the queue.

Update 3/31/2018:

Got the results back and, with the revisions, I passed.
