And the winner is...Pakenham!
Ok, Ok! After listening to all you Gippsland people about providing a location closer to you all, we have fianally taken the plunge and opened our new premises in Pakenham.
Why Pakenham? Well, it saves you all from having to travel all the way into Melbourne, and saves us having to travel all the way to the LaTrobe, plus it helps all the people in Warragul as well. (also the fact that it is a nice new area with HUGE factories also helped!)
So, yes, it has opened, and we should have some photos up soon, but you can book in at the Pakenham branch for the following (plus more coming soon) courses:
- Forklifts
- White Cards/CI Cards
- Truck Licensing
- First Aid
- Traffic Controllers
- RSA
- RSG
- RSF
- Dogging
- Rigging
- EWP - Scissor Lifts etc
- Scaffolding
We shall see you all there soon!

NEW SITE OPENING SOON!
Some of you may already be aware that we have been on the hunt for a larger plant machinery training site for a while, and we are finally pleased to announce that we have found it!!
It will be the only dedicated heavy earthmoving machinery training facility in Victoria (that we are aware of), and situated on a couple of acres of lovely digging soil just for the purpose.
More details will be posted here soon!

PPP (Productivity Places Program) Update for prospective students and all ESP's
As you may already be aware, the funding currently available under the PPProgram is coming to an end.
The last application dae for grants under this program for Victoria will be next Tuesday 2nd June.
The last inforamtion/application session will be held at Cove Seaford on Monday 1st June at 11am, in anticipation for the allocation day on the Tuesday.
Many of you have called and emailed us regarding alternative arrangements for this program after the 1st July, and at this point the Victorian Government has not yet made clear it's intentions.
We quote the information from their website:
Victorian Arrangements for Productivity Places
A key feature of the Victorian Government’s policy statement Securing Jobs for Your Future – Skills for Victoria, released in August 2008, is the Victorian Training Guarantee, an entitlement to a government subsidised place in recognised training that can be accessed at any time and will continue to be available for training at successively higher levels.
In light of these reforms to the Victorian training system, the Victorian Government has reached an agreement with the Commonwealth Government that, rather than run a separate Productivity Places Program in Victoria, this funding will be incorporated into existing arrangements.
While not offering separate ‘Productivity Places’ in Victoria, under this arrangement we will commit to deliver an additional 138,000 places over four years as part of current and future training delivery arrangements.
Prior to demand driven funding being fully introduced, and to ensure Victoria delivers those additional places, Victoria will purchase an additional 5,000 training places in 2009 and 10,000 places in 2010.
Victoria is also purchasing up to 1,119 priority health places.
Last Updated: 09 January 2009
Unfortunately we cannot predict nor assume the providers, eligable courses or eligability of the participants guidelines until they are released publicly.
We will inform all our nominated ESP's once we have this information.

R.I.P CRUMPET THE WONDERDOG
After 14 years of loyal service, yesterday we said goodbye to Crumpet. Many of you would remember Crumpet who was at work with us nearly everyday and had to endure thousands of students prodding and poking her (and she rightly got them back by stealing their lunches!)
So for any of you that might remember her, we have posted some of her finest moments.
