Formative Evaluations Assignment

Formative evaluations: Are undertaken during feasibility studies and pre-planning, such as before a bid is made, or in the early stages of strategic planning; they include needs assessments, learning about tourist and resident markets, creating attractive products, setting up effective organizations, and new product or marketing ideas.

Assignment Instructions: As you can see there are many documents that can be created during the formative evaluation process. We are going to focus creating the feasibility study itself for this assignment Below are two cases, please choose one. Conduct a feasibility study for the event. Please use the following document as a template. Your assignment should have the following subheadings: Risk, Time, Funding, Support, Staffing, Venue and Equipment and Environment. This is not a bid.
