Rant over ? Haha.not sure if I'm reading your message wrong but I'm under he impression you don't agree with this course structure.
dont worry I've not stepped out of a cleaning job.im in my 30's well experienced with electrics since leaving school have many electrical qualifications my pat test,17th,test and inspect and design course qualifications as well as completing the full apprenticeship .where I'm wanting to step is into electrical design / estimating maybe ,to get off my tools .most of those jobs require a hnc in electrical engineering.so I'm developing my career further and gaining another skill set.i now have a mortgage so can't go full time on The course due to finiacial comitments. i left school not knowing what I wanted to do so went into a trade now I know where I want to end up.god love this country where we can all progress in life.believe me in other countries qualifications are even easier to come by, it's about developing home grown talent rather than importing it because the UK lacks opportunity.its up to the employer to decide if one is crap at there job.hope you can see my angle now
Well im not one to take the **** out of ANY ONES qualifications.
Now as for A1 Training thing, i think their claims of doing a Degree in 1.5-2yr is DAM HARD, and if you PASS i will buy you a CAKE (nothing too posh) It would impress me a LOT.
Your Question was DAM HARD to Read for me, so i had to PULL OUT bits. A1 Training, so i looked at their qualifications, looked up the Scot Education System (ALL Because of your QUESTION HERE) tried to see if it is REAL COMPANY etc so to see if its a Scam or any thing. Then i looked up the JOB TITLE to see what Qualifications they were asking for. DO NOTE i am DYSLEXIC so for me i am at my Limits of Learning Level 3.. so a DEGREE to me is the HOLY Cup (see i cant even spell Grayel) So i am impressed with people who do, and in engineering (not a micky mouse course).
I would say UK Murdered a LOT of its Possible Talents, with School Education (i was made to do French, Science and History when i was WELL behind in English and one in my class got stuck on the word THE!!)
NOW .. WHAT IS IT YOU WANT.. If you want a JOB in "
Electrical engineering industrial supervisor"
Then look up the Job, finding out what the QUALIFICATIONS it wants for the SAID job and WORK BACKWARDS.
Personally i cant see you getting up to the grade by the way you READ my words, and the way you jumped down on me. To me that is Managerment or a Supervisor type of person.
Best of Luck in your Education, and i Hope i am wrong. (cake offer will be there, nothing Posh)
