What do you do here?

Ok guys, I thought it would be a good idea to accumulate our links to interesting sites and snippets that we have found. Suppliers of materials, art pieces, your favourite plants and the rest. If you have anything to add I can give you a password so you can update it yourself any time you want, send me an email or add a comment just below and I will put it up when I get a chance.

Business Diploma

Hi guys

I know a training company that is delivery some business courses with government funding.  It works out to be around $375 per course as long as you haven't completed a course at a higher level already.  There are business , administration and management cert IV's, diplomas and advanced diplomas.  The structure is usually somewhere around 8 full day classes then you complete the rest of course by posting in assignments.
It might be a good add on to your qualification.
If you have any questions let me know, some of the courses are starting in March.
This is a link to the training provider, http://www.fordtraining.com.au/  though they don't have the government funded courses advertised, I think.

I'm wanting to do the advanced diploma in business.  Could be a good pathway to get direct entry in to the final year of a degree if that is something you are looking at doing.
I've already completed a cert IV in business administration with Ford Training and I finished it in about 6 weeks.

Here is a link to my materials portfolio from 2010, it might be useful.  If anyone else has a portfolio they are willing to share I'm sure it would be helpful to everyone.

It’s embarrassing to say I have this huge desert ash on the border of my property but it gives so much shade and such a great carbon sink. Should I chop it down?  Sob!
