each Monthly Meeting on the second Wednesday of each month. This
Trainer's Meeting is intended for ALL
Trainers and, if possible, ALL Course Coordinators whether they are involved
in PC & XP Fundamentals or one of the many Optional
Courses. A number of training topics will be discussed at each of these meetings but if you would like to have a specific topic discussed please send an email to Peter Fowler by clicking this link pf-pcs@bigpond.net.au. |

| XP Assessment Test |
All Trainers are welcome to test themselves on
the XP Assessment Test (Version 1.5) which is given to new Club Members who
are seeking to bypass Fundamentals Training before enrolling in Optional
Courses. This Assessment Test consists of 50 multiple choice questions and
then a short Files & Folders exercise. The XP Assessment Test (Version 1.5)
is available at the link below. XP Assessment Test (Version 1.5) Click on the link above, choose "Save" and download the .zip file to your Desktop. Double clicking the downloaded .zip file and clicking on "Extract all files" in the Folder Tasks, then Next, then Next and then Finish will create a new folder on your Desktop called "XP Assessment Test". Inside this folder will be a folder called "Assessment Test". Place this folder (and its contents) in your "My Documents" folder.

| Course Coordinator's Guidelines | To encourage consistency in the way Courses are managed, the Club has put together a set of Course Coordinator' Guidelines. The document is in .pdf format so you will need Adobe PDF Reader loaded on your PC to be able to view the file. |
| Course Manuals | As you can imagine, a huge amount of work goes into writing new course manuals. Once the first draft of a new course manual has been completed to the author's satisfaction it is presented to the Training Sub-Committee for review prior to its use. Normally two members of the Training Sub-Committee will review the manual in accordance with the guidelines as set out in the Manual Reviewer's Guideline. This document is available in .pdf format via the link below for both reviewers and Trainers who are interested. |
