  By the way, in terms of the validity period, there are two types of qualifications: a qualification that is permanently valid once acquired and a qualification that needs to be renewed after a certain period of time after acquisition. The latter is further renewed for the purpose of increasing the effectiveness of the qualification through continuous acquisition of knowledge and practice, as well as the requirement to take only procedures or simple training and training at the time of renewal. It can be classified into two types: a condition in which a certain update point is acquired within a period (from new acquisition or last update to the next update).

  In the qualification that needs to acquire a predetermined update point within the update period, it is ideal that the qualified person creates a planned schedule for acquiring the update point. However, in practice, since the renewal period extends over a long period of time such as multiple years, there are many unconfirmed factors such as whether or not a course or course is held, and it is difficult to appropriately prepare an acquisition schedule plan for obtaining renewal points. For this reason, qualified personnel often do not acquire update points systematically, and often acquire update points only for the purpose of updating immediately before the expiration of the period, which is the original purpose of the renewal system. There is a problem that the acquisition of practical knowledge and practice are not being carried out properly.

  Here, when the dates of the courses / classes / trainings are fixed, the technology described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 can be used for planned education / learning / study / acquisition / training. It is possible to make a schedule. However, in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, since a schedule plan is created using information such as a confirmed course, it is difficult to plan a planned schedule when there are many unconfirmed elements in holding a course. It is.

  An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems of the prior art and provide a schedule plan creation apparatus and method capable of creating a planned schedule plan even when an uncertain element is included in the course holding. .

  In order to achieve the above object, the schedule creation device of the present invention is a schedule creation device for creating a course attendance schedule for acquiring the number of points required to be acquired by a course attendance by a predetermined period. Number of points that need to be acquired by the day, actual course information including the opening times of previously held courses, finalized course information including the timing of courses that have been confirmed to be held, and when attending a course 1 or more of the number of lectures held in the past in a predetermined period with reference to the storage device storing the lecture point information including the number of acquired points and the current number of points acquired by the user Assumed course information that includes the expected course date and the expected course date based on the results of the course course totaling section and the results of the course course counting section. Calculate the number of remaining points that need to be acquired from the difference between the assumed course information creation processing section to be created, the number of points that must be acquired by the predetermined date and the number of points acquired by the current user, and a fixed course And a schedule creation processing unit for creating a course attendance schedule for acquiring the number of remaining points necessary to be acquired while referring to the lecture point information based on the assumed course.

  The schedule creation method of the present invention is a schedule creation method for creating a course attendance schedule for obtaining the number of points necessary to be acquired by a predetermined date by taking the course, and the points required to be acquired by the predetermined date Course points including the number of courses, the number of courses held in the past, the course information including the opening times of the courses held in the past, the confirmed course information including the dates of the classes that have been confirmed to be held, and the number of points earned when attending the courses Storing information and the number of points currently acquired by the user, referring to the actual course information, and counting the number of courses held in the past in a predetermined period in one or more counting periods; Based on the counting result of the actual course totaling section, assuming a course holding time, creating assumed course information including the assumed course holding time, and the predetermined date From the difference between the number of points required for acquisition and the number of points acquired by the current user, the remaining number of points required for acquisition is calculated, and while referring to the course point information based on the finalized course and assumed course, And a step of creating a course attendance schedule for acquiring the number of remaining points that need to be acquired.

  The program according to the present invention is a program for a schedule creation system that uses a computer to create a course attendance schedule for acquiring the number of points required to be acquired by a course attendance by attending the course. In addition, the number of points required to be acquired by the predetermined date, past course information including the opening times of courses held in the past, and confirmed course information including the opening times of courses that are scheduled to be held , The process of storing the course point information including the number of points acquired at the time of attending the course and the current number of points acquired by the user, and the number of courses held in the past in a predetermined period by referring to the past course information Assuming that the course will be held based on the process of counting in one or more counting periods and the results of the course lecture counting section, including the assumed course opening time Calculate the number of remaining points that need to be acquired from the difference between the process of creating the seat information, the number of points that must be acquired by the predetermined date, and the number of points that the current user has acquired. Based on the course, a process for creating a course attendance schedule for acquiring the remaining number of points necessary for acquisition is executed while referring to the course point information.

  In the schedule creation device, method, and program of the present invention, information on a course that is supposed to be held is created based on the past results course, and the created assumed course information and implementation are confirmed. Create a schedule for taking courses based on the information about the courses that are available. In this way, by using the assumed course information for schedule creation, it is possible to create a planned schedule plan even when an uncertain element is included in the course holding.

  In the schedule creation device of the present invention, the actual course totalization processing unit determines a totaling unit based on rounding information that specifies a hierarchy of classification of a course field and period information that specifies a unit period, and the determined unit The assumed course information creation processing unit tentatively places an assumed course for each aggregated unit based on the aggregated result for each aggregated unit, and the temporarily assumed assumed course is aggregated for each aggregated unit. For each combination of the hierarchy specified in the rounding information and the aggregation period specified in the period information, prioritizing the aggregated assumed course, and according to the priority, the hierarchy and the aggregation period For the combination of the above, perform the validation / invalidation process of the relevant part, distribute the assumed number of courses validated by the validation / invalidation process, To the exclusion of fixed course from the seat, can be adopted a structure in which to create the assumed course information. Further, in the schedule creation method of the present invention, the actual course totaling step includes a step of determining a totaling unit based on rounding information that specifies a hierarchy of classification of a course field, and period information that specifies a unit period, A step of counting the corresponding actual courses for each of the determined counting units, and the step of creating the assumed course information is a step of temporarily placing an assumed course for each of the counting units based on a counting result for each of the counting units. And summing up the temporarily placed assumed course for each combination of the hierarchy specified by the rounding information and the total period specified by the period information, prioritizing the aggregated assumed course, In accordance with the priority order, for the combination of the hierarchy and the aggregation period, the step of performing the validation / invalidation processing of the part, and the validation / invalidation step The number of assumed lectures that have been validated is distributed, a step that assumes when the assumed course is held, and a step that excludes the confirmed course from the assumed course and creates the assumed course information is adopted. Can do. The rounding method is designated, for example, as a large classification field, a middle classification field, or a small classification field. The unit period is specified as, for example, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year. For these combinations, the results courses are aggregated, and the assumed courses (number) are temporarily placed. Here, the assumed course by the rounding method with a larger hierarchy and the unit period with a longer period (rough aggregation) is the course of the rounding with a smaller hierarchy, the aggregation with a shorter unit or period (dense aggregation) ) To include assumed courses. By performing validation / invalidation processing according to priority, the courses will be held by deleting the duplicates of the assumed courses by dense aggregation from the assumed courses by coarse aggregation and distributing the number of assumed courses that have been activated From the actual results, it is possible to assume the time when the course will be held.

  In the schedule creation apparatus and method of the present invention, when finalized course information is newly input, the field of the newly entered finalized course and the holding time, the field of the assumed course included in the created schedule, and the assumed course are assumed. It is preferable to compare the holding dates with each other and notify that the assumed course has been confirmed based on the comparison result. In this case, the user can know that the course to be taken has been confirmed to be actually held.

  In the schedule creation device and method of the present invention, when the course information further includes information on the course hosting area, and the schedule creation conditions for designating the hosting area of the lecture course are specified by the user, the total of the course lectures is counted. The processing unit can add up the actual courses of the holding district designated by the schedule creation condition, and the schedule creation process can adopt a configuration in which the schedule is created according to the designated schedule creation condition. In this case, it is possible to create a schedule based on the courses expected to be held in the area by narrowing down the total area of the actual courses by the user's designation.

  In the schedule creation apparatus and method of the present invention, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which a process of totaling actual courses, a process of creating assumed course information, and a process of creating schedules are performed periodically. In this case, it is possible to create a schedule based on an assumed course obtained by tabulating latest course information.

  In the schedule creation device, method, and program of the present invention, a schedule is created including the assumed course and assuming the course opening time. For this reason, even when there are many uncertain factors in holding a course, a planned schedule can be created.

Also, for example, when a course scheduled to be conducted occurs, information related to the course is registered in the scheduled course information storage unit 34 in the course information management apparatus 30, and when a course that has been confirmed to be newly implemented has occurred. The information related to the course is registered in the confirmed course information storage unit 33 in the course information management apparatus 30.

  The user registers personal information and qualification information in the personal information management apparatus 10 using the general information processing apparatus 90. For example, the user registers his / her name, address, and the like in the personal attribute information storage unit 11 and registers information related to the qualification held by the user in the personal qualification information storage unit 12. In addition, the user requests the schedule information creation processing device 50 to create a schedule plan at an arbitrary timing. At this time, the user transmits schedule creation conditions to the schedule information creation processing device 50. In response to the request, the schedule information creation processing device 50 creates a schedule plan according to the schedule draft creation conditions specified by the user, and presents the created schedule plan to the user.

  The user can specify, in the schedule draft creation conditions, that the schedule draft should be periodically created under the creation conditions. In this case, the schedule information creation processing device 50 creates a schedule plan according to the creation conditions and presents it to the user, for example, every month. In addition, the user can specify that notification is required when a confirmed course occurs in the schedule creation conditions. In this case, the schedule plan information creation processing device 50 notifies the user to that effect when a confirmed course occurs. When the user attends the course, the user transmits a notice to that effect to the schedule information creation processing device 50 and updates the information stored in the personal qualification point information storage unit 13 and the personal history information storage unit 14.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the schedule plan creation process. Using the general information processing apparatus 90, the user inputs schedule creation conditions to the schedule information creation processing apparatus 50 (step A1). In step A1, the user designates, for example, scheduled acquisition total points, course holding area, course holding time, balance of course attendance time, course classification, and balance selection of courses as conditions for creating a schedule plan. The assumed course creation processing unit 51 executes a process for creating assumed course information for a course related to the qualification designated by the user (step A2).

  FIG. 9 shows a procedure of assumed course creation processing executed by the assumed course creation processing unit 51. First, the assumed course creation processing unit 51 reads the rounding method information from the rounding method information storage unit 43 (step B1). Examples of rounding information include major categories (finance, insurance, tax, real estate, inheritance, etc.), middle categories (if the major category is finance, saving-type financial products, investment-type financial products, financial portfolio theory, etc.) , There are sub-categories (in the case of middle-class investment-type financial products, stocks, trusts, corporate bonds, investment trusts, etc.). Next, the assumed course creation processing unit 51 reads period information from the period information 44 (step B2). In step B2, for example, the periods “1 month”, “3 months”, “6 months”, and “1 year” are read from the period information 44.

  The assumed course creation processing unit 51 reads the results course information, the confirmed course information, and the scheduled course information from the results course information storage section 32, the confirmed course information storage section 33, and the scheduled course information storage section 34, respectively (step B3). Thereafter, the totaling unit is determined from the rounding information read in step B1 and the period information read in step B2, and the actual course information read in step B3 is totaled (step B4).

  In step B4, for example, if the processing day is April 15, 2004, the current month is April 2004. In step B4, the past year (the maximum period of period information) before the previous month is counted. In step B4, each period information unit (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year) and each rounding information unit (large classification field, medium classification field, small classification field) are within the period of the period information unit. Collectively, this is taken as the minimum unit row, and the number of actual lectures is totaled by the period information unit of each row. For example, if there are one type of major classification field, two kinds of medium classification field, and six kinds of minor classification field, the minimum unit row is (1 × 4) + (2 × 4) + (6 × 4) = 36 rows.

  In totaling the result courses, first, the result course information storage unit 32 is referred to, and the result courses whose dates and times are within the totaling period are extracted. Next, for each of the extracted result courses, the course basic information storage unit 31 is referred to using the course code, and the major classification field, middle classification field, and minor classification field to which the course belongs are acquired. Then, in each minimum unit row, 1 is added to the total number of periods including the date and time of holding. For example, if there is a course of course “12/20”, major classification field “large 1”, middle classification field “medium 1”, minor classification field “small 2”, it corresponds to major classification field “large 1”. 1 is added to each of the total numbers of the row, the row corresponding to the middle classification field “middle 1”, and the row corresponding to the small classification field “small 2” including December.

  In step B4, the total results shown in Table A in FIG. In Table A, a row A-101 indicates a totaling result for each month of the major classification field “large 1”, the middle classification field “medium 1”, and the minor classification field “small 1”. The month indicates that there were two courses belonging to that category. Further, row A-104 shows the results of aggregation in units of three months for the major classification field “large 1”, the middle classification field “medium 1”, and the minor classification field “small 1”. For example, from October 2003 In December, there are two courses belonging to that category.

  Then, in Table A, the period information is arranged in ascending order, and a period that is one step higher than itself is set as the determination target period, and in each determination unit period closest to the processing current month in each minimum unit row, the minimum value is the minimum unit. Select as row value. However, for the maximum period, the period is determined. For example, in Table A, No. Since A-101 is the aggregation period “1 month”, the determination target period is 3 months, and January 2004, February, and March 2004 that are the closest to the processing month are the determination target periods. The minimum value for this period is zero course in March 2004. When taking the minimum value in a plurality of months, the month closest to the processing month is adopted. No. Since A-106 is the total period “3 months”, the determination target period is 6 months, and the determination target period is from October to December 2003 and from January to March 2004. The minimum value of this determination target period is one course from October to December 2003.

  After counting the actual course information, rounding processing is performed with the minimum number of courses from the counting result obtained in step B4 (step B5). In step B5, an update period after the current month is set as an assumed course creation target. For each period information unit (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year) and for each rounding information unit (major classification field, middle classification field, small classification field) Is set as the minimum unit row, and the value of the minimum unit row selected in Table A is set for all periods as the period information unit of each row, thereby obtaining Table B as shown in FIG. For example, No. in Table B In B-101, no. Since the value of the minimum unit row selected in A-101 is 0 course, 0 course is set for the entire period. No. In B-106, no. Since the value of the minimum unit row selected in A-106 is one course, one course is set for the entire period.

  The assumed course creation processing unit 51 performs a subtraction process on the overlap in the rounding method information from the rounding process result in step B5 (step B6). In step B6, the overlap of period information is excluded from the rounding information. From the value of the target period, the sum of the values in the determination target period of the smallest unit row in which the rounding information unit is the same and the period information unit is one stage smaller is subtracted. However, no subtraction is performed when the target period is the minimum period. If the subtraction result is 0 or less, the value is 0. By such processing, Table C shown in FIG. 12 is obtained from Table B.

  For example, consider “large 1”, “medium 2”, and “small 4”. Since the period of 1 month is the minimum period, no. The value of C-113 is No. One course with the same value as B-113. For 3 months, no. The value of C-116 is No. in Table B. From the value of B-116 (3 courses), no. It becomes 0 course of the value which subtracted the sum (3 courses) within the period (3 months) of the value of C-113 (1 course). For a period of 6 months, no. The value of C-119 is No. in Table B. From the value of B-119 (7 courses), No. in Table C The sum (6 courses) within the period of the value of C-113 (1 course); One course is obtained by subtracting the sum (0 course) of the value of C-116 (0 course). For the period of one year, no. The value of C-122 is No. in Table B. From the value of B-122 (16 courses), No. in Table C The sum (12 courses) within the period of the value of C-113 (1 course); The sum (0 course) within the period of the value of C-116 (0 course); Two courses are obtained by subtracting the sum (2 courses) within the period of the value of C-119 (1 course).

  The assumed course creation processing unit 51 performs a priority ordering process from the rounding information and the period information (step B7). In step B7, first, for example, a matrix diagram of rounding method information and period information is created. In the matrix diagram, as shown in FIG. 13, the rounding method information unit is smaller and the period information unit is smaller in order. Perform priority ordering. In this example, since there are three types of rounding information and four types of period information, the first to 12th priority orders are set for a total of 12 types.

  Next, the sum of the rounding information unit and the period information unit maximum period is added to the matrix diagram created from Table C and transferred to obtain Table D-2 shown in FIG. For example, for the period “one month” of the rounding method “subcategory”, No. C-101, no. C-102, no. C-103, no. C-113, No. C-114, no. Take the sum of C-115 from April 2004 to March 2005 (12 courses) and transcribe the sum into a matrix diagram. Thereafter, in accordance with the priority order, each cell of the matrix diagram is validated / invalidated until the total number of assumed courses exceeds the maximum rounding information unit and the maximum period information unit in Table B.

  In the validation / invalidation process, a location (cell) in the matrix diagram is selected according to the priority order, and the location is validated. At this time, if the value of the cell on the right side of the location is equal to or less than the value of the location, all the locations on the right side are invalidated. If the value of the lower cell of the location is equal to or greater than the value of the location, all the lower locations are invalidated. The value of the validated part is added to the total number of assumed courses. When the total number of assumed courses exceeds the maximum rounding information unit and period information unit in Table B, the remaining All points are invalidated. If the total number of assumed courses does not exceed the maximum rounding information unit and the maximum period information unit in Table B, and the validation / invalidation processing is completed for all locations, the rounding information unit maximum and The remaining number (the value obtained by subtracting the total number of assumed courses from the maximum rounding information unit and the maximum period information unit) is re-set in the location where the period information unit is the maximum, and this location is validated.

  Specifically, in Table B, the value of the rounding information unit maximum (large 1) and the period information unit maximum (1 year) is 55 courses. In the validation / invalidation process, the cells of “sub-classification” and “one month” with priority “1” are first validated, and the value (12 courses) is set as the total number of assumed courses. The value of “3 months” of “minor category” (28 courses) located on the right side is not less than the value of “1 month” of “minor category” and is not invalidated. For the lower cell, the value of “1 month” of “medium classification” (36 courses) and the value of “1 month” of “major classification” (36 courses) are “1 month” of “minor classification”. The cells are invalidated because they are greater than or equal to the value of “ As a result, the matrix diagram changes from the table D-2 to the state of the table D-3 shown in FIG.

  Next, the second priority order is “three months” of “small classification”, and the cell is not invalidated, so this is validated. The value of “6 months” of “Small classification” (8 courses) located on the right side is less than the value of “3 months” of “Small classification” (28 courses), so “6 months” of “Small classification”. And the cell of “1 year” of “minor classification” is invalidated. For the lower cell, the value of “3 months” of “medium classification” (12 courses) is not equal to or less than the value of “3 months” of “minor classification” and is not invalidated. By enabling “three months” of “small classification”, the total number of assumed courses becomes 12 courses + 28 courses = 40 courses. Further, the matrix diagram changes from the state of Table D-3 to the state of Table D-4 shown in FIG.

  The third priority order is “one month” of “medium class”, but this cell has already been invalidated and is not subject to processing. Similarly, “six months” of “small classification” in the fourth priority order is already invalidated and is not subject to processing. The fifth priority order is “three months” of “medium class”, and since this cell is not invalidated, it is validated. The value of “6 months” of “Medium category” on the right side (4 courses) is less than the value of “3 months” of “Medium category” (12 courses), so “6 months” and “ The “one year” cell of “medium class” is invalidated. On the lower side, the value of “3 months” of “major category” (12 courses) is equal to or less than the value of “3 months” of “medium category”, so the portion of 3 months of major category is invalidated. By enabling “3 months” of “medium class”, the total number of assumed courses is 40 courses + 12 courses = 52 courses. Further, the matrix diagram changes from the state of Table D-4 to the state of Table D-5 shown in FIG.

  In Table D-4, the highest priority among the cells that have not been invalidated is “6 months” of “major classification”, and the cell is activated. Since the value (1) of “1 year” in the “major category” on the right side is equal to or less than the value (6 courses) of “6 months” in the “major category”, the cell is invalidated. At this time, the total number of assumed courses is 52 courses + 6 courses, which is 58 courses and exceeds 55 courses, so the remaining portions are invalidated as shown in FIG. 18 (Table D-6).

  The assumed course creation unit 51 performs rounding priority order processing from the rounding subtraction process result in step B6 and the priority ordering result in step B7 (step B8). In step B8, for example, a portion invalidated in the table D-6 is excluded from the minimum unit row of the table C, and a table E as shown in FIG. For example, in Table D-6, since “three months” of “medium classification” is activated, the corresponding row of Table C (No. C-203, 204) is changed to the row of Table E (No. E-203, 204). On the other hand, since “one month” of “medium classification” is invalidated, the rows of Table C (No. C-201, C202) corresponding to them are excluded in Table E.

  The assumed course creation unit 51 sorts the rounding process results from the rounding priority order processing result in step B8 (step B9). In step B9, the period of the minimum unit row is divided into minimum period units, and values within the period are distributed using random numbers in the minimum period units. For example, in Table E, there are two courses in the three months from April to May: “Large 1”, “Medium 1”, and “Small 1”. In this case, for example, one course in April, one course in May, zero course in June, and two courses are allocated to each month. By such processing, a table F as shown in FIG. 20 is obtained from the table E.

  The assumed course creation processing unit 51 excludes the similar courses of the fixed course and the scheduled course from the rounding distribution process result of Step B9 and sets it as the assumed course (Step B10). For example, when it is determined in August 2004 that a course belonging to the classification of “Large 1”, “Medium 1”, and “Small 1” will be offered, 1 course is subtracted from the value in August. The order of exclusion is performed according to the priority order. If it is not applicable, it is excluded from the next month, and if it is not applicable, it is excluded from the previous month.

  The assumed course creation processing unit 51 outputs the assumed course information to the assumed course information storage unit 35 based on the holding time of the assumed course created as described above (step B11). At this time, the assumed course creation processing unit 51 stores information that the place of the assumed course information, the host organization ID, the lecturer ID, and the like are undecided. As for the coarse density, the assumed course corresponding to those summarized in the large classification field (No. F-303 in Table F) stores “coarse” and is summarized in the small classification field (No. F- in Table F). 101, etc.) stores “dense”. As for the number of points, when the courses are totaled in step B4, an average value of the number of points is obtained for each rounding unit, and the value is stored. For the area, the area specified by the user as a condition for creating the schedule is stored. In the course code, course basic information corresponding to the assumed course with the course name as a dummy is stored in the course basic information storage unit 31, and the course ID of the dummy course is stored.

  Returning to FIG. 8, the schedule plan information creation processing unit 52 reads the assumed course information created in step A2, the actual course information, the confirmed course information, and the scheduled course information (step A3). Thereafter, from the course information read in step A3, the course that is not subject to the schedule plan creation conditions input in step A1 is excluded, and this is used as schedule plan creation source course information (step A4). In step A4, for example, 15 points as update points, 3 points as acquisition results points, Kyushu as the course holding area, April 2004 to December 2004 as the course holding period, and all classes as course classifications as conditions for schedule creation If it is specified, schedule plan creation source information is created by excluding fixed courses, scheduled courses, and assumed courses that do not match the conditions.

  The schedule plan information creation processing unit 52 creates a course schedule plan based on the schedule creation source course information created in step A4 (step A5). In step A5, the schedule plan information creation processing unit 52 prioritizes the schedule plan creation source course information in the order of the confirmed course, the scheduled course, and the assumed course, and after adjusting the balance of the course attendance time and the balance of the course classification, Create multiple schedules. For example, when it is necessary to take three courses by the renewal month, the schedule is prepared by adjusting so that the three courses are not taken at the same time.

  The schedule information creation processing device 50 outputs the schedule plan created in step A5 to the general information processing device 90 used by the user (step A6). The user browses the proposed schedule displayed on the general information processing apparatus 90 and makes a plan for attending a future course. The user selects an arbitrary course and requests to save the schedule plan (step A7). In addition, the user inputs whether to create a schedule plan periodically. The schedule information creation processing device 50 stores the course information requested by the user in the personal schedule plan information storage unit 42 (step A8). In addition, when the user designates that periodic creation is to be performed, the schedule information creation processing device 50 stores the schedule plan creation conditions input in step A1 in the personal schedule plan condition information storage unit 41.

  For example, when the user selects a confirmed course and requests saving, the information (ID) of the confirmed course is stored in the personal schedule plan information storage unit 42. Also, when an assumed course is selected and storage is requested, the information (ID) of the assumed course is stored in the personal schedule plan information storage unit 42. In step A7, the user can designate whether notification is required when the course is confirmed. For a course designated as requiring notification, the user is notified when the scheduled course or the assumed course is confirmed to be executed by the fixed course allocation process described later. Further, when the user instructs the regular creation of the schedule plan, the schedule plan information creation processing device 50 creates the schedule plan information periodically by the schedule plan regular creation process described later.

  FIG. 21 shows a processing procedure for the periodic creation processing of the schedule plan. In step A7 of FIG. 8, when the user instructs to create a schedule plan periodically, “required” is stored in the “presence / absence of rebatch” of the personal schedule plan condition information storage unit 41. The schedule plan information periodic creation processing unit 53 periodically reads the schedule plan creation conditions in which “required” is stored in the “presence / absence of rebatch” from the personal schedule plan condition information storage unit 41 (step C1). Thereafter, the schedule plan information periodic creation processing unit 53 creates assumed course information by the same process as step A2 in FIG. 8 (step C2), and results course information, finalized course information, scheduled course by the same process as step A3. The information and the assumed course information are read (step C3), the courses that are not subject to the processing similar to step A4 are excluded (step C4), and the course schedule draft is created by the same processing as step A5 (step C4). Step C5).

  The schedule plan information periodic creation processing unit 53 outputs the schedule plan created in step C5 to the personal schedule plan information storage unit 42 (step C6). Thereafter, the individual schedule plan information and the confirmed course information are read out from the individual schedule plan information storage unit 42 and the confirmed course information storage unit 33 (step C7), and the personal attribute information is read out from the personal attribute information storage unit 11 to confirm the course. Information is notified to the user (step C8).

  Steps C7 and C8 are executed when “Notification” is set to “Required” in the schedule creation conditions. In step C7, a confirmed course is extracted from the personal schedule plan information of each user, information on the confirmed course is read from the confirmed course information storage unit 33, and a guidance notification is created. In step C8, the contact information of the user is read out from the personal attribute information storage unit 11, and the created schedule plan information and the guidance notification of the confirmed course are notified to the user using e-mail or the like.

  FIG. 22 shows the procedure of the fixed course allocation process. When the confirmed course occurs, the administrator uses the management information processing apparatus 80 to input information on the confirmed course to the schedule information creation processing apparatus 50 (step D1). In step D1, when the scheduled course changes to the finalized course, the manager instructs the transfer of the scheduled course to the finalized course. The confirmed course allocation processing unit 54 registers the confirmed course information in the confirmed course information storage unit 33 (step D2). In the case of a transfer from scheduled course information, the scheduled course information to be transferred is deleted from the scheduled course information storage unit 34, the scheduled course information is transferred to finalized course information, and this is registered in the finalized course information storage unit 33. To do.

  The finalized course allocation processing unit 54 reads the personal schedule plan information from the personal schedule plan information storage unit 42 (step D3), and allocates a new finalized class and a scheduled or assumed course of the personal schedule plan information ( Step D4). In step D4, the newly confirmed course is compared with the scheduled or assumed course of the schedule plan information, and if the conditions such as the date and time of the course and the course classification match or are similar to each other, the scheduled course is confirmed. Judgment is made and it is determined that it has been assigned. Thereafter, the personal attribute information is read from the personal attribute information storage unit 11, and the user is notified of the confirmed course and the schedule plan information that have been assigned by e-mail, for example (step D5).

  In the present embodiment, the result courses are totaled according to the classification and the period, and based on the result of the aggregation, information on the assumed courses with high possibility of implementation is created, and this is used for creating the schedule plan. In this way, it is possible to create a planned schedule plan within the renewal period by creating a schedule plan including assumed courses as well as finalized courses and scheduled courses, and users will be able to It is possible to effectively plan the continuous acquisition of knowledge and practice that are the original purpose of the renewal system of qualifications.

  In addition, when a schedule plan is regularly created, a course plan with higher accuracy can be created by periodically creating the schedule plan by determining that the course is held over time. The user can input the necessity of notification at the time of course confirmation, and by entering that notification is necessary, when a confirmed course that matches the scheduled or assumed course of the stored schedule plan information occurs , You can receive a notice of the event. By doing so, the user can apply for attendance without delay when he / she wishes to attend the course.

  In the above embodiment, an example of creating a schedule plan according to qualifications has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to qualifications, the validity period is a fixed period, and accumulation of a fixed condition within the validity period is performed. It can be applied to cases where the validity period can be renewed when satisfied. For example, it can be applied to uses such as a case where a certain degree of education is required and a case where a certain skill needs to be cleared (a personnel system) under the promotion and promotion conditions in company personnel.
