Hi Guy

Sounds like you are new to GIS and not just new to QGIS, so the 
following may be helpful:

http://freegeographytools.com/2007/free-online-courses-for-open-source-gis
http://gis.coaps.fsu.edu/moodle/
http://grass.gdf-hannover.de/wiki/GRASS_Education_(Free_GIS_education)

On a different note, if this is to be a once-off exercise for you hiring 
someone might be a viable option - just a thought.

Cheers

Craig Leat.
