Hi everyone,
Thanks to those who joined our first workshop last week, it was lovely to meet and see you all and I am looking forward to the year ahead. Please find attached some summary notes from the session, these are by no means exhaustive however attempt to capture a synthesised snapshot of discussions. Feel free to upload this document to your Padlet if you like for easy access throughout the course.

A recording of the session can be viewed at this link below. Can I recommend that you fast forward through from 10:40-16:00 mins as I had forgot to pause the recording!

Finally, if you could send me a link via email to your individual Padlet pages when you have a chance that would be great so that we can keep track of everyone's progress. My email address is april.browne@dairyaustralia.com.au

If you haven't had a chance and would like a hand setting up your Padlet page, please email me and I'd be more than happy to organise a time to catch up and help you with this. Our next live session will be held 1st April and you can find the Zoom link in the Hub tile.

Part 2 of the Module will be released this Wednesday 17th at 9am for those who have completed all the topics in Part 1. As always don't hesitate to email or call if you need anything and feel free to ask questions here on the discussion feed also, there is a wealth of experience amongst this group and the forum is a great way to get feedback from your peers.
