Toowoomba International Catering College Shirisha Bhanoth completed her MBA at USQ and wants to set up a cookery training school called the Toowoomba International Catering College catering initially to the domestic education market for students wanting to work in the restaurant and hospitality industry. Her family has a long history of food preparation, and still operates a bakery and restaurant in her home town of Kathmandu. There they focus on healthy vegetarian food and produce much of the supplies at their own farm in the foothills of the Himalayas. Shirisha aims to build the Toowoomba International Catering College in Toowoomba. This will involve getting finance, finding a suitable site to lease and operate from, getting approval from local authorities for establishing and operating the site, developing a proposal for government accreditation, marketing and recruiting students. One of Shirisha’s challenges will be getting a Student Management System. She expects this will be a web-based student enrolment system for use by students, teachers, and administration. It will allow students to apply to enrol and select courses, process enrolments, manage class lists, pass information to the billing system (Xero) and the Learning Management System (Moodle) and produce reports. Shirisha is keen for the SMS to be available as soon as possible but is aware of the importance of it being a quality on-line “shop-front” to create positive first impressions with potential students and their families. Toowoomba International Catering College plans to contract out their software development projects and not have their own software development department. After several interviews with various software development companies Shirisha has engaged your company Technology Consulting to help.
