I'm pretty sure this FTE calculation is no longer used, its something like "Technology Worker" or anyone who has access to technology in the normal course of their day...

Might have a few 19" 16:9 but VGA only... Where are you?

Make sure you give it to someone who is switched on, check and double check you've mapped fields to your MIS or your import will be junk Remember, Garbage in = Garbage out...

Pretty sure it does they call them relays... SETTING UP THE RELAY MACHINE In the Admin Center of the portal, at least one device will need to have the client installed and then has to be selected and set as the Relay. 1. Select the Device to be used as the relay 2. Click the Edit button above the device list 3. Tick to select the box next to Use as relay to select device to be used 4. Click Confirm 5. Restart the device (No I don't work for SENSO!)

Thanks Gents, much obliged... It was in relation to one of my techs dissertation, he's looking at the new DfE Standards for schools IT

Just chatting with one of my technicians about his Uni dissertation, What was the offer from Microsoft (quite a few years ago 15 maybe?) that built you an education focused Server 2003 AD network from a single ISO/DVD? It created an educational focused network, all the AD and Group policies for locking down workstations etc? i think it was designed for one of the middle eastern countries like Saudi Arabia? Steve Memories fading after 30 years in IT!

If you use TACS Talaxy its built in....just needs some config

Hi Tim, no issues, its around 1/2 the commercial cost but obviously still not insignificant. £550 for a four day course is pretty good going though! Best Wioshes Steve
