NPM 405A CCU Primary Data to Determine the Necessity of Planned Project Data Analysis – Description
The written assignment this week is focused on secondary data, but primary data can often provide a better understanding of the problem and needs to be done. Both of the textbooks go into detail on different ways and methods to find and research primary data. With primary data in mind, answer the following questions:
What types of data analysis would you consider using to help you find out how necessary your planned project is, why the recipients need this, what is being done already, and how positioned is your nonprofit to do this?
What methods particularly fit for your nonprofit? Share what would work best for the project you are considering.
Provide factual support for your contributions to this discussion. Also, in your response posts, indicate what insights you have gained from your classmates’ posts that changed and/or reinforced your beliefs. Explain where you agree or disagree with your classmates and define why.
