The general practice at the Mentoring is that the Mentors will be available for those who need them, but obviously this is dependent on a good ratio of Mentors to Mentees, which isn't always the case. So in general we will help as much as we can but we try not to spend too long with one individual in the case that others get left wanting.
This month we will also be trying some new methods we picked up at DrupalCon Denver which should cater to more people at one time, so hopefully that will help maters.
If you need more training than can be provided in the Mentoring session there is definitely a good number of people in Melbourne that would be happy to provide you with professional training, many of whom will be there Tomorrow so just see how you go during the free Mentoring and get to know those that would be happy to provide their services and make your decision from there.
Cheers,
Deciphered.

Hi paulafa,
I have being going too them for a while now and they are great. They changed the format last time and started using this http://learndrupal.org/ website. Anyone new to Drupal will find it invaluable. I wish I had it when I started.
The guys on drupal-au in irc are great and no question is stupid and at times I have asked some unusual ones.
Hi Paula, Mentoring is
Hi Paula,
Mentoring is monthly on the 3rd Saturday of the month, so the next one will be May 19.
As a newbie you might get some useful information out of the presentation I did at Drupal Down Under earlier in the year. You can watch it online and download the slides here: http://2012.drupaldownunder.org/session/all-node-no-code
I should be along to the next mentoring so I can help you out if you do get a chance to go through the presentation and have any questions.
Cheers,
Erica.
