Retired and training in IT - UK member
Partly to prevent retirement boredom and partly to try and earn some money part time or at home(I care for a semi invalid spouse)and also because I really love IT,I have signed up at my local College to do A+ again so I can get some hands on practice at hardware which I am not as good on as I would like to be, and I have enrolled for Networking with Windows 2000, again with hands on hardware.
I wonder if I have chosen the right courses having regard to my experience, present skill level and the IT market? I can only spare two evenings a week and the other choices would have been advanced web design using my favourite FP2000 or a beginning programmingcourse using VBasic. The tutor who approved my application told me there is more call for Networks Admins than web designer, is this true having regard to my location Herts UK?
There are many very interesting facets to IT and I don't want to be amediacre Jack of all Trades, better to choose one or two fields and get as far as I can?
My career background has been in Law and in Class Music Teaching.
I would be grateful for any advice from Trainers, Employers and Peers please.
Thank you
