Hi everyone.

Well, I'm a career changer - been in IT for 11 years but want to escape the office environment and get my hands dirty!

I am due to finish my Level 3 2330 this summer and have got my 17th already. Next step will then be 2391.

Like many others, I'm finding the most difficult thing is getting some decent experience.

Cheers

 
:Welcome:Hi welcome best of luck with all exams.

When you start work invest in a set of knee pads best investment ever

 
Welcome Hefferl. Congrats on the career change. Well done for joining a great forum.
