1.0Executive Summary
John Paul II College of Davao formerly Philippine College of Innovative Education 2000. A
Private Non-Sectarian which was headed by Ms. April B. Evangelista as the School Director and at the
same time the Vice President for Finance. Its main address is in Ecoland, Matina, Davao City, Davao
del Sur 8000. The school was established in the year 2000. The school offered courses like BS
Computer Science and BS Information Technology as their computer courses. Other courses includes
BS Education, BS Business Administration, BS Hotel and Restaurant Management, BS Nursing, BS
Engineering and BS Criminilogy.
The school is using EDPS (Electronic Data Processing System) in their daily operations
and transactions. An EDPS like Student Information System, Accounting and Payroll System,
Students Enrollment System, and Inventory System. These systems are being managed and
maintained by the IT department personnel and staffs which include the System Administrator,
Network Administrator and Technical Staffs. In every different department like Human Resource
Department, Administrator Department, Registrar, Accounting Department, Faculty Department and
Office of the President and School Director they are doing their daily works and transaction with the
aid of computer and technology but some of the departments are not linked with each other. The
deans dont have a direct access of computer network link to the office of the president and director
because computers are not yet connected as a network. If there is any message to be sent to deans
and vice versa with the director; they still need to go physically into directors office or to the deans
office.
In the IT department, some personnel, staffs and even new instructors are not been so
updated by additional trainings and seminars about latest trend of technology used in network and
software, and hardware. Though in some times, the school is providing trainings and seminars but are
not yet enough to meet the standard and complete Management Information System.
Looking at the existing network layout of the school, there are still some departments that
are not yet linked with each other which results to time consuming and less efficient. This propose new
requirement for management information system and their network system will hope for better
performance and quality transaction of school operations. The said proposal is subject to further
studies and research for improvements of their network system. It also suggest of additional and
further trainings for staffs and personnel. New design layout for network to effectively and efficiently
function in their daily transactions and operations.
Hope this proposal will able to consider some of the needed improvements of the schools
information management system and network system. The school will also consider providing more
trainings, seminars and updates of latest trend of technology.

Among the three main technical people from the Information System Department,
additional
training needs which I have seen is that since some are used to with the
old version of Microsoft products like MS Word, Excel, and others; A team of people
are in the process of changing their role within the business. Their new role requires
them to use Microsoft Office Excel 2007, but they have only used the 2003 edition.
They need IT training to update their skills to the new version. There are over 800
Microsoft online training courses and for some Microsoft products, such as Microsoft
Office Excel 2007, there are many Microsoft training courses available to choose from.
Aside from that a seminars and trainings about the latest software and technology
should be given to IT staff and personnel.
