SIS Showcase Day
A Joint MITIE & ASBA Online Event
When: Wednesday 18 June 2025
Time: 9:00 AM – 5:10 PM AEST
Location: Online Webinar (link provided after registration)
Who should attend:
ICT Managers, Business Managers, Principals, Deputy Principals, and anyone involved in School Information Systems (SIS).
Overview:
MITIE and ASBA have partnered to bring this national event to school leaders across Australia and New Zealand.
Selecting the right Student Information System (SIS) is one of the most strategic decisions a school can make. But comparing vendors, features, and implementation experiences isn’t easy.
Join us online for a full-day SIS Showcase where leading platforms will present alongside schools currently using them, giving you the chance to see real-world use, ask direct questions, and evaluate your options more clearly.
Keynote by Rob Thomsett, Project Management Thought Leader (Seven Consulting)
Setting a Project Up for Success
Rob draws on decades of experience consulting on complex projects with schools and global organisations. This session will provide practical advice on planning, governance, sponsorship, and getting things right from the beginning — especially relevant to large-scale digital transitions like SIS reviews.
Rob is:
- A Fellow of the Australian Computer Society
- Creator of the Master of Project Management at Sydney University
- Author of The Real Benefits Workbook, The Team Toolkit, and The Sponsor Guide
Bonus for all attendees: A comprehensive SIS Comparison Matrix, showing key features and differentiators of each showcased system — an invaluable tool for future planning.
