Byte Busters is currently involved in a contract with DeWhy College of Calgary Alberta, an independent Arts College, to provide them with a time tabling system to aid with the scheduling tasks at the school. The Byte Busters team is pleased to report that the progress of the initial release of the Student Timetable System (STS) is on schedule and is approaching completion coinciding with the previously forecast date. We believe that the STS will be released on time and are looking forward to the comments and concerns the DeWhy representatives may have during the upcoming acceptance demonstration on April 13th, 2000.

acceptance presentation


Explanation:
The Acceptance Presentation
A meeting to gain final acceptance of the project may be necessary. This presentation should be made to the appropriate body which may include information technology management, chief academic and fiscal officers, user management and/or steering committees. The presentation should follow the same basic outline of the final report, but might include visual aids or demonstrations. After the presentation is summarized, the meeting should opened for questions and discussions.
