Assessment Task: Using the scenario given in Appendix A, analyse the requirements and then: 1. Expand upon the already given partial ERD (Appendix B) and thus produce an ERD that models a new system for GB Training that will satisfy all the requirements detailed in the scenario given. The partial ERD may change slightly when you produce your complete ERD, depending on the assumptions you make. 2. State any assumptions made during the development of your design. (The 'What' and 'Why') 3. Produce a set of minutes of team meetings that detail: o How (and to whom) the deliverables (tasks) have been assigned. o What quality control procedures took place. o Discussions regarding the progression of the deliverables (tasks). o Documentation of work required (and by whom) by the next meeting. A brief viva may take place after the coursework has been submitted, to discuss the allocation of marks within the group. A non-attendance at this viva (without good reason) will lead to that team member receiving a mark of zero Appendix A GB Training Organisation GBT is a training organisation that provides various training courses. The company has decided to put all the information they now keep manually into a database and to include course booking, accommodation booking, trainer allocation and room allocation in this new database. Background Students can apply for any of the courses provided. Each course has one or more trainers who are skilled in providing that course. A trainer is allocated to each course occurrence (actual course). If students attending a course require accommodation for the duration of the course, then accommodation is provided in local boarding houses which are booked by GBT and added to the overall cost of the course. They also keep a record of which students are booked into which boarding house and on which dates. Current System There is no standard method of receiving course applications. They can be made by telephone, letter or through a Course Application form which is issued with the Course Catalogue. If a student makes a general enquiry about a course, then the Student file is checked to see if he/she is a current student. If a student is not in the Student file, then he/she is sent a Student Details form to complete together with the Course Application form. When the students return their Student, Details form they are allocated unique student numbers and the students' details are then added to the Student file. Upon receipt of a valid course application, the Current Course file is checked for a vacant place on a currently organised course (actual course). If there is a place available, then the student is allocated to that course (actual course) and notification details are sent to the student. If there is not a place currently available on a Current Course, students are allocated to the Type, of course, they wish to attend. When there are enough students waiting to attend a course then a new actual course is set up and students waiting for that course are sent notification details and allocated to a Current Course (actual course). When a student is notified of his/her acceptance onto a course, possible accommodation details are sent out and an accommodation booking is subsequently made if required. A training room is allocated to an actual course by the Course Booking Section. Only one room will be allocated for each course run. The training room list is checked for available rooms, an available room is allocated, and the room list is updated. Trainers are then allocated to the actual course. The system must check which trainers are qualified to teach a particular course and which trainer is currently available to be allocated to the course. Miscellaneous The courses provided can be of 1, 3 or 5-days duration. A course type may contain the following information: Course Code Course Title An actual course may contain the following information: An actual course may contain the following information: Course Code Start Date Duration Max No. of Students Appendix B Partial ERD Course Type Allocated Student 1..1 1..1 0.,* 1..* 1..1 1..* Current (Actual) Course Allocation
