<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I am very mindful of the distance that
some people have to travel to get to a workshop, but unfortunately it is not
always possible to meet everyone’s needs. Given financial and personnel constraints
we are unable to offer more than one workshop in each region. VCE IT is one of
few VCE studies that has workshops in every region – some studies have only
2 – 6 workshops for the state. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>It is a tricky business determining the
best location for the workshops with decisions usually based on the
concentration of schools within a geographic area. But often the best plans go
astray. For example, we have located one regional workshop in an area that has a
potentially strong audience, but to date only a couple of people have
registered. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
