DESCRIPTION

A vendor is sought to provide a cloud-based solution for managing student teaching placements across three universities. The proposed system should offer an online portal to oversee the placement process for both early field practices and student teaching candidates. Key requirements include automated data export functionality that allows the university to extract comprehensive datasets daily, using documented and non-proprietary formats without manual intervention.

Additional features must include the ability to bulk import student and course data via documented templates or APIs, including data validation and error reporting. The system must support users with multiple roles, provide timesheet functionality to record student hours by week or day for each placement, and enable the creation and assignment of evaluation forms to any active user. Robust reporting capabilities for placement-related data are also required. The contract will span three years.
