   After all, a year into Dr Boston's reign as Director-General of School Education, the KGB published a manual for SES (Senior Executive Service) officers, Owning and Operating a Director-General.

   As Managing Director of TAFE NSW, Dr Boston rapidly developed a deep understanding of our unique organisational strengths, and our irreplaceable contribution to the Australian educational landscape, history, and character.
   
   Impressed by what TAFE could (and can) do, he became an invaluable advocator of our role as the people's provider.
   
   He has been a tireless asset in strategic negotiations, and a courageous captain in the odd war.
   ...
   On this auspicious occasion, I think I can safely say that we paid more than just a little care and attention and, in return, that TAFE NSW has benefited immeasurably from Dr Boston's leadership and guidance over the past four-and-a-half years.

   Finally, I would like to remind Dr Boston that, to misquote another member of the pantheon of TAFE NSW Directors, should London ever be razed by a nuclear bomb, TAFE NSW could teach all the skills necessary in rebuilding it.

   On the 16th of July we had a visit from Dr Ken Boston who is the Director General of the NSW Department of Education and Training. This is the Department under which TAFE now operates. He toured the Centre and spoke to staff. Unfortunately the day he visited there were no workshops on so he didn't get to see the centre in action. We did put together some demonstrations, of some workshop experiments & our internet site. He was extremely impressed with the setup we have here and the way we deliver our course.
