Project scope

What is the main goal for this project?

Our company advertises thousands of products online. To identify and resolve IT problems more efficiently, we want to set up an IT ticketing system.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

  • Familiarizing themselves with our target market, products and services.
  • Researching and selecting a suitable IT ticketing software.
  • Identifying useful categories to classify tickets.
  • Testing the system and making changes based on feedback.
  • Recommending IT ticketing best practices.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

  • Addressing open tickets.

  • Improvements to the system based on feedback
  • Recommendation of IT ticketing best practices

Bonus steps would include:

How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our target market, products and services
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:
