Craig am looking at your boot camp, Sydney or Melbourne as could not make Chch, will the content vary, will you have better facilities (toys) at latrobe, regards Jim Baxter
There will be no difference between the two; except I won't have to work so hard at the Melbourne one; other LTU staff will take over the prac sessions (and I can have a break!)
