I think the most annoying part of doing this course is the simple fact that on completion you have no chance of getting a job in VB unless you have work experience. I have been to see a career advisor and was told that the only way into programming would be to do a work placement through the job centre. Basically become unemployed, register yourself as unemployed with the job centre and in three to six months time you may be eligble for a placement.
Bo**ocks to that !!I feel that unless you are very lucky and get into programming by some fluke at the end of this course that we are paying 800 quid for a qualification that we will not be able to use. Anyway all the best with the course.
