Hi guys,
Looking for all those that are intending to study in 2025 to complete the cert IV Mental Health Peer Work.
This is a space for our study group, where we can discuss what we are studying and hopefully get some input from current Sane Peer support workers.

@MJG017 as far as i know, the ARM iso file seems to be the correct version for when you're using a mac to try and download ubuntu through the UTM.
When I said I've already downloaded the Ubuntu iso 64 arm iso file, I meant as in that I've already downloaded that file from the Ubuntu website before I started using the UTM to try and install Ubuntu through there.
Either way, nothing still seems to be working for me on my end. Since I have the class tomorrow afternoon, I'm gonna be using one of the lab PCs in that class along with plugging my SSD on there, since the teacher said that the hypervisor is already installed in the lab PCs 😄
I really appreciate for all your help!! ❤️

Last night I finished my pamphlet. I added a second page and am really happy with it. Today so far I have watched two lectures and done a long worksheet on Mental Health Standards 2010.
I am giving plasma later so am recharging my phone so I can watch another lecture while I am there. Who knows what I am going to do in class next week because we are supposed to be working on our pamphlets in class. I did mine because I was looking for a constructive distraction. The pamphlet is not due until week 8 anyway! We are in week 4 this week.

oh wowww 4 weeks ahead!? that's amazing @Oaktree i guess when everyone's working on their pamphlet you can probably catch up on other assignments... but i'm guessing you're probably on top of everything? do you find the content and assessments easy so far? i was a really bad student when it came to lectures... once i watched all 12 lectures (they were 1 hr each) for the first time in the before my exams. i put them in double speed so got through them quickly... somehow passed the subject!

@Blackcloud
Yep, the ARM one is the right one. The M2 chips are made by ARM, but with some Apple input.
Don't be too put off with it all, you've done all the right things... apart from owning a Mac. 🤣 These things aren't normally as complicated and difficult as you've found, you were just up against it due to Apple hardware.
And no worries about the help, anytime. I have lots of spare time on my hands. 😁

@rav3n @tyme
There is a lot of content and a lot to think about but so far it is pretty straightforward. We actually don’t need to memorise anything but need to know where to find the relevant information.
I am pretty up to date with things but I have to tackle a few assessment questions and watch a couple more prerecorded lectures for this week.

Yeah, I sorta find that. It's not so much hard, but just gotta do it @Oaktree , eh?

@tyme
Exactly,
The overwhelming bit is all the assessments being due here and there.
