Hi guys,
I'm new to the site and I'm just about to set off on doing an intensive course with a training academy. I'm 37, just been made redundant and I've decided to go in a new direction after working in the automotive industry for 15 years. I know there are a lot of you that are against intensive training academies, but I'm a little old for an apprentiship and feel gaining the qualifications and then gaining some practical on the job experience is the way to move forward. My question is this - after looking around at the myriad of qualifications, which is better for the electrical sector, city and guilds or bpec qualifications? And what are the differences?
All advice is greatly received, many thanks
