Abstract
The project Distance Education (Learning) System is a web-based application, which
deals exclusively with the online training programs for the employees of the company. It
basically list-outs the available courses and time in which courses has to be completed. It
even eases the task of the company to review the courses and the training done by the
employees. The company can assess the performance of each employee by the online exam
conducted for the course.
Only the employee of the company can access the system. The registered
employee is provided with the online study material covering that particular course along
with the corresponding question bank. The course is provided with different levels. Each

level covers the sub-topic of the particular course. After reading the study material, the
employee must write a test. The test contains random questions selected by the server from
the question bank. The employee must qualify the test in order to go to next higher level.
Once all the levels in the course are completed, he/she must qualify in a final test, which
contains all the subtopics of that course.
In our system, employees are given the flexibility to change the password and can
write any type of test (level test, entry test, final test) for 3 times. If the employee is unable
to complete the training with in the stipulated time, then they can request the administrator
to increase the training time period. The employees can even directly write the entry test for
any level. They can view the study material of the completed levels of the registered course.

C URRENT S YSTEM
The training Department of the company administers training functions and is headed by
the Administrator (Training). The training is organized based on a training directive issued
by the management. The administrator of the training is based on diverse media of delivery.
Whereas the classroom based, instructor led programs form the principal module of
delivery. The company is also interested in promoting and developing self-learning based on
distance education concept. The company has, for this purpose acquired a library of Books
which are maintained on server for this purpose.
The whole process is now manually controlled. This requires intervention by the training
staff at frequent intervals. It is proposed to automate this function together with the
management of training function.

Proposed System
The main focus of this project is to provide online training for the employees of the
company. The study material available online can be in the form of documents on a server
machine which can be accessed simultaneously by many users. All the permanent
employees should be able to access all kinds of study material irrespective of the employees
designation or field of expertise. No person other than the employee of the company should
be able to gain access to the system.

Any employee interested to undergo training should be able to register himself/herself

with the system for the desired course. The employee logs in to the system and selects the
subject of interest. Depending on the course selected the employee is allotted a fixed
amount of time during which he/she is proposed to complete the self paced training. Once
the allotted time has elapsed, the employee is not allowed to access the training program.
The employee may request the Training Administrator to extend the time period for the
training.
