Submission Note and Scenario
Assumptions
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY NOTE
This is an original exemplar based on the scenario supplied by the learner. It is not an official WGU template and
cannot guarantee an evaluator decision. Before submission, compare every section with the live task directions
and rubric, personalize the analysis in your own voice, and disclose AI use exactly as required.
Scenario facts used
The professional task is an internal, company-wide email about a remote-work process change and
the launch of TimeSync.
TimeSync goes live October 1, 2026.
Employees must download the app, complete a 10-minute tutorial, and synchronize their work
calendar before launch.
The stated business purpose is improved workload balancing and project allocation, not employee
micromanagement.
No real employee names, company records, confidential information, personally identifiable
information, or protected data were supplied to the AI tool.
Course alignment
The official public GA1 syllabus identifies three competencies: explaining foundational AI concepts and
terminology; evaluating AI use by considering risks, benefits, and limitations; and applying AI tools to
common professional tasks. It lists one final project. This exemplar directly demonstrates those
competencies through a business communication use case.
Artifact acceptance criteria
Criterion Target Verification
Audience All employees Plain language; no HR jargon
Length Under 250 words Word count performed after drafting
