Instructions:

• Use Microsoft Visio or Draw.io to draw the diagram. Diagrams made by any other tools will not be graded.
• Use IE (crow’s foot) notation. Diagrams with any other notations will not be graded.
• The diagram should specify entities, keys, attributes, relationship types (identifying or non-identifying), and cardinalities (MAX and min on each side). Divide an attribute further into simple attributes when appropriate. All many-to-many relationships, if any, should be converted into associative entities (the answer should not have many to many relationship). Relationship labels are not needed. Grading is based on the completeness of the diagram.
• Add a textbox with your full name inside the diagram (no point without your name). The figure below is an example. (Note: For this exercise, attributes are not needed.)

• Your answer is required when you see the red answer box like the box below.

3. The Training Database (14 points) You are asked to design a database for your company’s training program. There are in total 8 instructors and 5 different courses.

Each instructor is responsible for up to five classes, and each class is taught by only one instructor. A class can handle up to 25 trainees per class. A trainee may register up to 5 classes at the same time. A class will be canceled if it has fewer than 5 trainees.

An ID is needed for each entity. Other data needed in the database includes (separate the attributes into smaller attributes when appropriate): instructor name, instructor e-mail, course name, course description, class name, class schedule, class capacity, trainee name, and trainee e-mail.
