Received excellent results (81.5%) for PRINCE2 Practitioner certification exam today. Following the Advanced Project Management exam this Thursday, I will also have completed a GradCert in PM. This course is particularly interesting as it probably should be entitled "Systems Engineering" - our required text is NASA's Systems Engineering Handbook (PDF 8.5 meg). So if you need a spaceship built, you know who to contact. All of which explains my absence from the Australian Science Fiction convention held this weekend. I know a lot of my old Perth friends were over, and I really do apologise for being unable to attend.
Also attended an ALP Kew branch meeting and Federal Electorate Assembly executive meeting tonight; I've been co-opted onto the exec as treasurer. Neglected to mention some two weeks ago that I attended an excellent presentation by former state treasurer, John Lenders, on the Baillieu government's first budget. Even trying to be non-partisan, we still find it extraordinary how terrible this government is. The chief feature of their budget is to axe thousands of public service jobs, particularly from technical and further education.
This Saturday is Linux Users of Victoria meeting on Doing the Naughty Thing In Linux - which is about using MS-Windows applications. This will be followed by a meeting (FB) of the Victorian Secular Lobby on 'Clerical Abuse and the Need for A Royal Commission'. In particular there are the concerns that a parliamentary inquiry will not be independent, and the difficulty of victims in receiving damages.
