TROPIC 2008

TROPIC activities so far this year:

• Phil and Mike ran an innovative micro-skills session for about 50 staff members at the TNQT Learning & Skilling Day
• After much planning and preparation and some uncertainty about who was going to attend, Phil and David and Bob and I ran a TROPIC training workshop in Brisbane last week.
  
• Many thanks to Deb for the massive job of coordinating venue and catering not to mention travel and accommodation for me and the Leaders - this with many last-minute changes and much waiting for information, and all happening just prior to the VET Teaching conference!!
• We had participants from Skills Tech, TNQT, WBIT and SQIT and also Angela from DETA's Research & Strategy Branch.
• The training went well and I'm looking forward to doing some work with Skills Tech and also closer to home with Daniela and Claire.
• Phil and I are also going to get some more activity happening with all the TNQT Mentors.
• This coming week I will be presenting at Ve-Mentoring, thanks to an invitation from Simon.
• Both Simon and Tracie are bringing some expertise and interest in online environments to our network, and Mike has vast experience in videoconferencing.
