This workshop was one of the 1998 2 day VECO workshops lead by
VECO Project Officer, Janine Bowes, who was ably assisted at the
Sydney session by Nicola Cartwright from the ASTF. 16 coordinators from NSW and ACT came
together at the Burwood premises of Intouch
Consultancy. After a hard day's work the group relaxed with dinner at a great little
Italian restaurant in Sydney.
Participants engaged in a full program of discussions
and activities, two of the most popular were:
Real Time Technologies
We demonstrated ICQ and Net Meeting via dial up to David Potter (the Netride) in Brisbane.
Websites of VET Programs
We were fortunate to have two coordinators present who have developed substantial websites
for their programs. Lenny Eagles and Gary Stephenson led the group through their program
websites demonstrating features and telling the stories of how they came about, pitfalls,
lessons learned, future directions.
