And a big thank you to you too Anna. I don't think you needed to be concerned about your online persona - you did a wonderful job!

Anna finally did the guest session at a time that was non-ideal based on the reality that no time is a non busy time in the life of a coordinator!

Thanks too to Andrew FitzSimons for his great introduction and personal insight! I think the strategy of "dobbing in a colleague" as online guest has quite a bit of merit so feel free to "dob in a mate" with particular expertise. Anna's online guest material will be on the VECO web in the online guest area (http://www.veco.ash.org.au/guest) as soon as she sends me that photo she promised......

We were to have had a College Principal on soon as a guest on the subject of the impact on curriculum of the Common Youth Allowance. The good news is he is so good at what he does he has been promoted but the bad news (for us) is that he is no longer in a position to be an online guest for the forseeable future.

cheers
