...wow, the response to this has been massive. THe things that stands out,
for me, so far, is that a lot of these courses seem to be on a teach
yourself kind of baisis.
I suppose when learning about computers the old model of
teacher/classroom/pupil doesn't really apply. I have overwhelmed the person
who is helping me to find training for work with LOADS of ideas. THe thing
is I don't really need her and her organisation to enable me to do them. It
seems possible that I coould put myself through the training nescasary in
order to gain these qualifications. Not that that's a bad thing, of course!
So thanks again to everyon who had made sugestions and posted links!
