Dear Fellow Stats Officers
We at Deakin are currently reviewing our data reporting tools with a view to
replacement.
As part of this process we hope to visit a number of other institutions in
order to discover what tools are already in use within the sector.
Before we do so, we were hoping to establish a small reference table of
background information.
We would appreciate it if, when you get a spare minute, you could take the
time to answer the following questions.
If you would like a copy of the completed table, please indicate so in your
return email.
Q1) What Student Database do you use (eg Callista, Peoplesoft)?
Q2) What is the database platform for the Student Database (eg SAP, Oracle,
SQL Server)?
Q3) What reporting tools do you use to extract/analyse your data (eg
Discoverer, Holos, Business Objects, Analysis Services)?
Q4) What year did your current student database go live?
Q5) If we were hoping to visit your institution to view your system and
discuss its pros and cons, who should we contact and how?
Thanks for your time
Kind Regards
Lee Rowlands
Institutional Research Analyst
