<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am just confirming that there is NO official support material for the new study design from VCAA as yet? If it isn’t out yet any idea of timing of this support material?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another question - Would anyone like to suggest when the new workbook will be published as I found this so useful with the old study design?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks <o:p></o:p></p>
