The paper will gives an overview of the underpinning project developed especially in its objectives, problem encountered, scope of study, methodology as well as the findings in developing this project. In order to develop this project, the methodology based on System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), generally three major steps, which is planning, implementing and analysis is being used. The project looks at the related works by researchers from variety of scope of study, which includes training management concepts. It developed using PHP Framework and having MySQL as the database. A prototype demonstrates an idea on how the overall system help HRM staff to reduce time needed for every request to be handled. This approach shall help HRM to have a better enhancement in their database management system. Implementation of this new system has been proven reduced the time taken needed for every cases handled by HRM staff.

Besides speed up the overall process and increase its flexibility, paper usage also can be reduced as the no more hardcopy form being involved. Testing of the project shows that the system able to provide a desired solution which allow users to apply training via online. This shows that the developed system will be having net advantages once implemented.
