Facilitated a VC meeting between Andy Kirk & Career Advisers on 5th June

After a few 'technical problems' from the MOE office where Andy was borrowing the VC gear, the VC kicked off. Unfortunately he couldn't get the document camera or svideo to work, so we resorted to viewing his laptop through a preset. Not a good view, but was better than nothing. Fortunately, I had suggested to the viewers that they have their computers with them so that they could work through the site at the same time.

I attended the VC from Northland College, and there were about 7 Career Advisers from the NZ elearning clusters onboard. I think they all went away feeling that it was a well worthwhile tool to use as part of their career education work with secondary students. Although MyPortfolio is a complete LMS, we were focusing on the career education aspect.
