4- Create a project charter based on the assumption that the project will take 4 years to complete. Make a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Gantt Chart using Microsoft Project or similar software and indenting categories appropriately.
* Take screenshots and print out the WBS and Gant Chart in suitable format (mind map, chart, and tabular).
