TAFE Central do use iMacs at some of there campus'. Perth Campus also use
cad software for design classes on  OS X. In the past TAFE has been very
open about what they use and have always been very willing to offer support
to students with other based OS'.

I suggest when enrolling for the course to find and talk to one of the
lecturers. They are on campus for questions relating to courses.
