What Was the Project?
2182 - BUSA - Introduction to Business Statistics The SPSS Statistical Portfolio will consist of 10 computer laboratory assignments.
The lab assignment must be double-spaced, font size 12, and Times New Roman. Please set the Top, Bottom, Left, and Right Margins to 0.5. It may be necessary to increase the Left Side Margin to .75 so that the binding process does not destroy (or obscure) the written material for the lab assignment.
Each Computer laboratory assignment should have its own cover page and accompanying output as indicated on the original computer laboratory assignment. Tabs (with numbers) should be placed on the cover page of each assignment to indicate the beginning of each computer lab assignment.
The Portfolio must be a professional looking document.
The Portfolio must contain a cover page and table of contents, followed by all computer laboratory assignments.

Why Was THIS Project Chosen as an Example?
Exposure to complex computer programs and data analysis is exceptionally important in the business world today. Statistical analysis falls into so many aspects of business. This portfolio is the longest (in pages) project I have completed thus far in my academic career. This statistical portfolio is highly detailed and complex for a lower level statistical course. The format was also essential in achieving a successful mark on this project. It still sits bound on my bookshelf, because I love to be able to look at it and say, “Yeah, I did that”, it gives me pride. I had another course in statistics that I completed at Armstrong Atlantic State University, there was some overlap between the two but there was definitely plenty of application that was covered in each but not in both. I really enjoyed my time spend with statistics and that is another reason that this is the technical competence piece used to satisfy this objective.
