A good mix of prospective and current students attended the event to view the new facilities or enquire about the wide range of programs on offer via distance education.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Scott Bowman said he was delighted to meet students and to receive a gift on behalf of the centre from the SkyTrans Cairns Taipans as a thank-you for CQUniversity's two-year sponsorship.
