a Company Tab which will be providing assistance to the companies to shortlist the
students as per their eligibility criteria. It reduces the manual work and consumes
less paperwork to reduce the time. Front end of the system is developed with the

CHAPTER 1
 INTRODUCTION
In today’s world everyone is travelling for jobs after Completion of their
graduation. It has became need for each and every student, but for that they need to
travel worldwide in searching of jobs. For simplicity of this whole hectic
procedures we had proposed Online Training and Placement System because of
earlier system is totally done manually by maintaining records, time consuming and
very difficult to maintain coordination between student and companies.
The project is aimed at developing an online web application for the training
and placement department of the college. The system is an online web application
that can be accessed throughout the Institute with proper login provided. This
system can be used as an application for the TPO of the college to manage
the student information with regard to placement. Student logging should be able to
upload their information. Organisations representatives logging in may also
access/search an information put up by the students. TPO have to collect the
information and manage them manually according to various streams. If any
modification is required that is also to be done manually. Overall it will reduce the
paper work and utilize the maximum capability of the setup and organization as
well as it will save time and money.
Problem definition and scope of project
Students choose a specific college where the placement will be held, there is a need
to maintain all these papers, causing large amount of space. It is manually done,
chances of missing, difficult to handle the details of student.

Scope of project :
Our project has a big scope to do. Students can access previous information about
placement. We can stores information of all students. Various companies can access
their information. Notifications are sent to students about the companies.
1. Easy to collect and manage student data.
2. To increase the accuracy and efficiency of placement procedure.
3. Reduce the paper work.
4. Analysis of overall placement activities.
Other features such as giving notification to students about the jobs that
are available both on and off campus can be included in the upgraded
versions. The system cannot provide the SMS integration. Hence, it can
be modified to give the SMS integration. Other features like analytics can be added
in future to this portal for tracking the progress of student in specific areas. After
analysis this system will notify students of the areas they are lacking in.

Justification of problem
Existing System
All processes in existing system are handled manually. All the work that is done in
the existing system is done by the human intervention . As all the work is done
manually, there were a lot of workload on placement officer and it also increases
the maximum chances of errors. This is so slow and time consuming. Due
to increase in number of user’s the process become more difficult. Problems faced
in existing system are as follows :
 Searching of eligible students is done manually by TPO based on the company
criteria.
 The records were stored in modified excel sheets hence sorting problem.
 The duplication of records was usual hence data redundancy.
 TPO’s have to collect all the information and Resumes of students and organize
them manually and sort them according to various streams.
 Collecting CV’s of so many student is a painful and time consuming task and
handling of too many CV’s is a great overhead.

 It takes too much time to managing, updating and informing specific student for
specific company criteria.

Proposed System
The main purpose of proposed Web based Training and Placement portal is meant
to give more easiness to TPO, Placement coordinators and Students that they can
modify and access information so quickly. The system provides a better way to
maintain students information in the database, ensures data correctness and data
integrity as well. The system also reduces the paperwork time and provides an
efficient information flow between different system modules. Our system consists
of different modules to interact with. Firstly, on opening the web portal you’ll land
on the main page of the portal which showcases information about the college.
Secondly ,there are three tabs given in the portal namely T&P, Student , and
Company. Each module has the same login page consisting of user id and password
field for gaining access to the functionalities of the system. in the portal namely
T&P, Student, and Company. Each module has the same login page that contain
user id and password field, by entering data in these field the user can gain access to
the functionalities.
