Re: Presentation College, San Fernando

some good questions.

it doesn't matter what the IT syllabus covers since it's to be used for 
all subjects.  remember they also want to use it to develop subject 
material for online use.

there's no price range.  when i asked, he said it is a "dream" list so 
basically to run wild with line items.

yes the quotation will include cost for software.  FLOS software is 
preferred and there will be fees to install/customise it (indirect 
funding for Burrokeet).

there should be an IT teacher there, but it's the vacation period so if 
i can communicate with him before i submit the quote i will.
