Hi Warren,

Will pass the word our to my old students and through our igda chapter.

Would love to speak to you about the program as well if you got some time. It sounds interesting for sure and something that is useful.

Cheers,
Simon

If any of you can help me with that - sharing information about the program with students, specifically, or telling me where I can do that, I'd certainly appreciate it.
