New enterprise student management system for Defence

A new initiative will soon be rolled out across Australian Defence Force training establishments to enhance the education and training of personnel.

Commander Australian Defence College, Major General Mick Ryan said the new enterprise student management system would provide a reliable approach to recording training conducted by Defence personnel.

“The system provides a more efficient approach to student administration across Defence and underpins our shift to a more continuous, accessible and adaptive learning environment,” Major General Ryan said.

Following a competitive product evaluation and proof of concept, TechnologyOne Limited, an Australian-owned company based in Brisbane, has been awarded the contract to deliver the student management software.

“Delivering a project like this demonstrates Defence’s commitment to optimising the education and training of our personnel,” Major General Ryan said.

“It provides excellent opportunities for Defence to work with the Australian domestic ICT sector in a rapidly evolving domain.”

Defence is currently conducting a competitive evaluation process for a third-party vendor for the installation and management of the system. An announcement on the outcome will be made shortly.
