I have definitely learnt a broader understanding of ACE, more national perspective, clarified ideas of leadership, gained inspiration. Activism is a key word, which I found extremely refreshing in our discussion/learning. I have enjoyed these three days enormously. I am exhilarated, inspired and exhausted. Thank you for the opportunity to learn and clarify my own direction in the adult learning world. I would rate the program as excellent. You have exceeded my expectations I feel invigorated and inspired This was an excellent professional development opportunity. I feel quite privileged being part of it. It provided me with insights to leadership that I hadn't considered. I'm leaving with many ideas to adopt in my workplace, and implement in my work practices The program provided a new framework for understanding where ACE is heading in the future and the role that I can play. The best face-to-face program that I have participated in. I now feel further challenged about adult education and my role both nationally and locally. To put this into action will be an interesting and rewarding challenge. I feel like I've been strolling through a gallery of learning vistas and portraits each different from the next. An interesting journey in learning. -- Leftlink - Australia's Broad Left Mailing List mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archived at http://www.cat.org.au/lists/leftlink/ Sponsored by Melbourne's New International Bookshop Subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=subscribe%20leftlink Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=unsubscribe%20leftlink
