Hi brissyboy
I'm a new entrant with no previous experience other than having a crack back in '05 and just missing out on getting to the interview.
(They gave the results at the end of the day's testing back then - damned SORT test!)
I also checked the Tower course box.
The training will be done in Melbourne, apparently sharing a class with the Enroute guys for the first couple of months before diverging.
Check out jrbridge's post on Aug 29 for a rundown of the topics covered.
Good Luck
