Research and explain the NTSB "Party Process" and how it assists in the investigative process.
Detail the limits, specifications, structure, responsibilities, and reasons behind the process.
Review the Assignments information page for details regarding the assignment, formatting criteria, and so forth.
The intent of the course assignments is for you to apply the material covered in the readings by researching how these concepts have been applied in the real world. You will be further challenged to provide critical analysis demonstrating an understanding of the concepts.
It is always helpful to share experiences from the field, but make sure to stick to the facts and provide cited references to support the anecdotal observations.
Each assignment will use the following APA format:
1-2 pages (approximately 300-words) - Quality is more important than quantity.
1" margins
Double-spaced
12 pt. Times New Roman font
Include name on the front page.
Save your assignment using a naming convention that includes your first and last name and the activity number. Do not add punctuation or special characters.
Your paper will automatically be evaluated through Turnitin when you submit your assignment. Turnitin is a service that checks your work for improper citation or potential plagiarism by comparing it against a database of web pages, student papers, and articles from academic books and publications. Ensure that your work is entirely your own and that you have not plagiarized any material!
