Anyone Done A Short Course Through A CAE?

[Bathsheba]

Specifically, has anyone studied at the CAE in Melbourne CBD? I think it's on Flinder's Lane. They offer hundreds of courses... many of which are nationally accredited. Most courses cost about $300 for a 16 week course. There are also fast-track short courses lasting only a few days.

I'm thinking of doing one of their language courses... French. I missed their most recent intake (start last weekend) but am hoping to get into the October uptake.

DH brought home a catalogue recently and now I'm all inspired. Many courses have weekend classes.

I'd just like to know how well they are run.... quality of lecturers etc. I'm pretty fussy... having studied at a uni with substandard lecturers and one (Monash) with excellent ones. I don't want to pay for a course just to find out that the level of service is poor.
