I don't know anything about a course advertised in the SMH.
However I am at the moment doing a Certificate IV in laboratory techniques via Flexible delivery ( essentially online with a couple of weekend workshops through out the semesters ) through Armidale TAFE
They are at the moment planning the certificate III in laboratory Skills to commence next year ( also flexible delivery),

I'm not sure if a Cert IV is also planned as the current Cert IV will not finished until June.

This link will tell you about Cert III in laboratory skills

The contacts at Armidale TAFE for Cert III for next year are
jenifer.druitt@det.nsw.edu.au
gillian.e.traise@det.nsw.edu.au

You do have some units that you think don't relate to your work in schools but I have found that in get somethink related to what I do here out of every unit, even counting worm eggs in sheep poo!

I don't actually know anything about the course. One of the teachers came in this morning saying that she had seen some sort of course advertised and had I seen it. She didn't bring the paper itself in. She did say she would bring it tomorrow if I hadn't seen it.

She did say it was only one day and about 17th November.
