Advocating for Lasting Change
Develop and record a video presentation for policymakers from the appropriate governing body or regulatory agency requesting policy and financial support for your proposed change. Draw on your work in the previous assessments and consolidate lessons learned.
Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed. In addition, be sure to note the requirements below for the presentation format, length, and for citing supporting evidence.

Presentation Format and Length
Remember, you may use Microsoft PowerPoint or other suitable presentation software to create your slides. If you elect to use an application other than PowerPoint, check with your faculty to avoid potential file compatibility issues.
Your slide deck should consist of 10–15 slides, not including the title, questions, and references slides. Use the speaker’s notes section of each slide to develop your talking points and cite your sources, as appropriate.
