Regrettably it has been brought to our attention that PY students are leaving ACS events before the finishing time.  This behaviour is unprofessional and discourteous to the event organisers.

If you leave a presentation or seminar early, it will not count towards your required three attendances at ACS events for PY graduation. 

Please ensure you stay for the duration of an event you are registered in.  Also, if you find you cannot attend an event you have registered in, you must notify the organiser prior to the date of the event.

Mark Toomey has written an excellent book called "Waltzing with the Elephant: A comprehensive guide to directing and controlling information technology". (Publisher Infomatics Pty Ltd, August 2009, ISBN 978-0-9806830-0-4)

This book aims to help build shared understanding that leads to a well-integrated system of governance of IT from the boardroom to the coalface, framed around the guidance in ISO/IEC 38500.
