Individual Reflective Report – Group Consultancy Project
This assessment is an individual reflective report based on the student’s learning and experience during the Group Consultancy Project for the Engineering and Environment Advanced Practice London Campus Consultancy Project module at Northumbria University. The assessment requires students to critically reflect on their activities, contributions, skills development and professional learning throughout the group-based consultancy experience. The report has a total word limit of 2,000 words, excluding the table of contents, page numbers and captions for figures and tables. It is structured around two main components: a Progress Report of approximately 1,000 words and a Reflection of Learning and Development of approximately 1,000 words. The Progress Report brings together the main themes of the module from the perspective of additional skills development, engagement in self-development, group-based learning, cultural awareness and ethical awareness. Students are expected to discuss key personal activities undertaken during the group project, skills gained through participation, personal contributions to the project, and the development of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills. Academic literature can be used to support the discussion. The Reflection of Learning and Development section requires students to critically evaluate their personal strengths and weaknesses and demonstrate their ability to engage in continuous self-development within the context of group project work. Students should reflect on a range of project activities and provide examples of their involvement in decision-making, problem-solving, communication and influencing, technical skills, collaboration, innovation and proactivity. The assessment therefore focuses not only on describing what students did, but also on evaluating what they learned and how the experience contributed to their professional and personal development. The assessment is worth 50% of the total marks available for the module, which is assessed on a pass/fail basis. The assessment rubric evaluates the Progress Report at 50%, Reflection of Learning and Development at 40%, and Writing Style at 10%. Strong submissions are expected to provide clear and relevant examples, integrate activities with skills and contributions, demonstrate critical reflection on strengths and weaknesses, and present a well-structured and professional written report. Students are also expected to follow the university’s requirements regarding academic integrity and the responsible use of generative AI. The assessment guidance states that AI may assist with activities such as improving grammar, formatting structure, organising ideas and generating suggestions, but the main content, analysis and conclusions must remain the student’s own work. Students are required to declare their use of AI tools when submitting the assessment.

Group Consultancy Report – Engineering and Environment Advanced Practice
This assessment is a group consultancy project for the LD7119 Engineering and Environment Advanced Practice London Campus Consultancy Project module at Northumbria University. Students work in consultancy groups of four to five members and are assigned a live project in collaboration with an organisation and the university. The purpose of the assessment is to investigate an organisational issue or requirement and develop practical, evidence-based solutions that can support the organisation in implementing improvements. The main assessment consists of a 5,000-word Group Consultancy Report and a compulsory 10-minute client presentation. The report is expected to demonstrate a professional and commercially appropriate approach to consultancy work. It should provide a clear introduction to the project, establish the organisational context, and analyse the business requirements and needs of the client organisation. The report should then explain the research methodology used, including appropriate ethical considerations and the design of the practical work undertaken. A substantial part of the assessment focuses on research, discussion and findings. Students are expected to collect and analyse relevant evidence, present their findings clearly, and provide evidence of practical implementation and testing where applicable. The assessment therefore requires students to connect academic research and relevant theories with practical consultancy activities and organisational requirements. Evidence from diagnostic tools, feedback and other appropriate sources can be incorporated into the report to support the analysis and conclusions. The final part of the report focuses on recommendations and improvements. Students should develop practical and actionable recommendations that are relevant to the organisation and can contribute to the successful implementation of the proposed ideas. Recommendations should be supported by the research findings and should demonstrate an understanding of the organisation's requirements and potential implementation considerations. The assessment is worth 50% of the total marks available for the module, which is assessed on a pass/fail basis. The report has a 5,000-word limit, excluding the table of contents, page numbers and captions for figures and tables. The client presentation is compulsory, although it does not have marks directly allocated to it; its purpose is to help the client and supervisor understand the consultancy project. The assessment is evaluated across professional and commercial presentation and introduction, business and requirement analysis, research methodology including ethics and practical work design, research and findings including implementation and testing, and recommendations including improvements. Students are also required to acknowledge sources appropriately and complete the assessment declaration regarding their work and any use of generative AI. The assessment brief states that AI may assist with activities such as improving grammar, structure, organising ideas and providing suggestions, but the main content, analysis and conclusions must remain the student's own work.

AI Readiness and Programme Adoption Strategy for the NewFutures: AI Programme at Northumbria University London
This postgraduate consultancy project focuses on developing an AI readiness, skills-development and programme-adoption strategy for students and recent alumni at Northumbria University London. The project supports the university’s participation in NewFutures: AI, a funded AI skills and career-readiness programme offering a four-week online course covering responsible AI foundations and specialist pathways in Marketing and Communications, Finance and Accounting, Business Operations and Logistics, Administration, and ICT and Technical Support. The central consultancy challenge is to understand the AI literacy, confidence, readiness and training needs of Northumbria University London students and alumni and translate that evidence into a practical implementation and outreach strategy. The client aims to reach approximately 12,000 students and recent alumni and support a target of 6,000 LMS registrations during the 2026–2027 programme period. The project requires primary and secondary research into AI readiness, demand for different AI-skilling pathways and barriers to participation such as awareness, time, perceived value and accessibility. The consultancy team is also expected to benchmark comparable initiatives and use research evidence to develop recommendations appropriate to different academic disciplines and student and alumni groups. The implementation component focuses on designing an evidence-based outreach and adoption campaign, including appropriate communication channels, messaging, timing, incentives, faculty engagement and stakeholder participation. Recommended channels may include email campaigns, newsletters, social media, student services, events, learning platforms and alumni communications. The project also requires an implementation timeline and indicative budget for the 2026–2027 programme period. The wider assessment develops professional consultancy capability through business and requirements analysis, research methodology, ethical research practice, practical implementation, testing and strategic recommendations. The project charter additionally establishes milestones for research design, data collection, analysis, report development, review and presentation, together with defined responsibilities for project management, data analysis, AI expertise and stakeholder communication. The individual component complements the consultancy work through critical reflection on personal contribution, skills development, decision-making, problem-solving, communication, collaboration, technical capability, innovation and continuous professional development.
