Hmm i live in QLD and neither a techie or a teacher *runs from crowd* but rather a student that just finished highschool that can't find a **$£ job anywhere (hmm i would of just renamed "New Zealand (NZ) Specific Forums" to "Oceania Specific Forums" instead of making a separate one for Aus since there's only a few of us lurking around, but thats just my two cents.).

Nice to see edugeek is thinking of the Antipodeans and created an Australian users regional chat forum.
I must say that I have found edugeek forums to be an invaluable ICT resource for techies working in Australian schools.
Although I retired as ICT support officer in 3 Adelaide, South Australia schools some time ago I still do voluntary work for each of them and this site heads my early morning must read list.

I'm based in QLD too, and am both a techie and a teacher (ironically I teach Industrial Skills more than ICT). I hope that this forum gets more aussies on here as it is a great way to share and help!
I am a techie with a different slant.
I work for a small firm that focuses on network design, implementation, sales etc etc.
As a firm we have educational clients and thus the link here to eduGeek. I am personally heavily involved with a large (1300 pupil) College.
Based in Sydney!
Cheers for the Aus forum eduGeekers.

Hey,
I've been coming to this site for a fair while now. It's a great resource for all those in the IT area, not just those in schools.
I am an IT Manager at a school here in Brisbane. We have around 1600 students.

Hi I'm a pom living in Queensland and working as a Network Manager at large P-12 college supporting over 2250 users and over 800 PCs and laptops. I've just bought a blade server and I'm having lots of fun with ESXi.

There is another thing about joining Edugeek though....that we can all come and visit!
(but not all at once, promise!)
I'm another NSWelchman...
I've worked for an IT company based in Sydney for the past 2 years, and we provide support to approximately a dozen high schools (each with ~1100 kids) and a various number of primary schools.
I personally cover ~3 schools and mainly do Network/Project Management and Administration...Before that i was on-site support at one of the above mentioned high schools doing on-site support.
Hey lads. im a tech from SA and i have the oh so enjoyable job of managing a primary school server.

I spent a year working at a school in rural NSW. Was fun. Heading back out to Australia at the end of march. Just getting a 1 yr visa to start, but hopefully will get a Skilled Person visa after that, I pass the points test on the website.
Not got a job sorted yet for out in aus. Any good agencies I should be looking at?
