Congratulations! Discovering this piece proves you must be thinking about your future, and if you’re considering retraining you’ve even now progressed more than the majority of people will. It’s a frightening thought that hardly any of us are contented at work – but most will take no corrective action. We implore you to break free and do something – you have the rest of your life to enjoy it.
When looking at training, it’s important that you first make a list of what you DO want and DON’T want from the job you’re hoping to qualify for. Ensure that a new career would suit you better before you put a lot of energy into altering your life’s plans. Prudence suggests looking at the big picture first, to steer clear of regrets:
* Do you like working on your own or perhaps being around others is more important to you?
* The building trade and the banking industry are facing difficulties these days, so which sector would give you the most options?
* When you’ve done all your re-training, are you hoping your new skills will give you the ability to take you through to retirement?
* Do you expect your new knowledge base to make it easier to find the work you’re looking for, and keep working until you choose to stop?
Pay attention to the IT industry, that’s our best advice – unusually, it’s one of the growth areas in the UK and Europe. In addition, salaries and benefits exceed most other industries.
A question; why should we consider commercial certification instead of traditional academic qualifications taught at tech’ colleges and universities? The IT sector is now aware that to cover the necessary commercial skill-sets, certified accreditation from such organisations as Microsoft, CISCO, Adobe and CompTIA is closer to the mark commercially – for considerably less. They do this by honing in on the actual skills required (along with a relevant amount of background knowledge,) rather than covering masses of the background detail and ‘fluff’ that computer Science Degrees can often find themselves doing – to fill a three or four year course.
It’s a bit like the TV advert: ‘It does what it says on the label’. Employers simply need to know what they’re looking for, and then request applicants with the correct exam numbers. Then they’re assured that a potential employee can do exactly what’s required.
Be careful that the exams that you’re considering are commercially relevant and are bang up to date. ‘In-house’ exams and the certificates they come with are not normally useful in gaining employment. All the major commercial players like Microsoft, CompTIA, Adobe or Cisco each have nationally approved proficiency programs. These heavyweights can make sure you stand out at interview.
It’s essential to have accredited simulation materials and an exam preparation system included in your course. Be sure that your practice exams haven’t just got questions on the right subjects, but also asking them in the way that the actual final exam will ask them. It completely unsettles students if they’re faced with unrecognisable phrases and formats. Be sure to request some practice exams in order to test your understanding at any point. Practice or ‘mock’ exams add to your knowledge bank – so you won’t be quite so nervous at the actual exam.
