IT Training And Study Around The UK Revealed
You should feel pleased that you've made it this far! Just ten percent of people enjoy their work and find it stimulating, but the majority just bitch about it and that's it. The fact that you're here means we can guess that you're finding out about training, so well done to you. What comes next is find out more and then take action.
We suggest that you discuss your ideas first - find an industry expert; an advisor who can discover your ideal job, and offer only the learning programs that will suit you:
* Would you like to work with others? If you say yes, are you a team player or are you hoping to meet new people? Maybe you'd rather be left alone to get on with things?
* Banking and building are a little shaky these days, so which industry will answer your needs?
* Is this the last time you imagine you'll re-train, and if it is, do you believe this career choice will allow you to do that?
* Are you confident that your industry training course is commercially viable, and will offer the chance to work right until retirement?
We would advise you to consider the IT sector - there are more roles than staff to fill them, plus it's one of the few choices of career where the market sector is growing. Despite the opinions of certain people, it isn't a bunch of techie geeks gazing at their computer screens every day (if you like the sound of that though, they do exist.) Most positions are done by average folk who enjoy better than average salaries.
One thing you must always insist on is full 24x7 support from dedicated instructors and mentors. Far too often we see trainers who only provide support to you inside of office hours (typically 9am-6pm) and sometimes a little earlier or later (but not weekends usually).
Never accept study programmes that only provide support to students via a call-centre messaging system after office-staff have gone home. Trainers will always try to hide the importance of this issue. Essentially - you want support at the appropriate time - not when it suits them.
The best trainers utilise several support facilities active in different time-zones. They use an online interactive interface to seamlessly link them all together, at any time you choose, there is always help at hand, with no hassle or contact issues.
Don't under any circumstances take less than this. 24x7 support is the only viable option when it comes to IT training. Maybe late-evening study is not your thing; but for most of us, we're at work when traditional support if offered.
Finding job security in the current climate is incredibly rare. Businesses often drop us from the workforce with very little notice - as and when it suits them.
We can however discover market-level security, by searching for high demand areas, together with work-skill shortages.
A recent national e-Skills analysis showed that more than 26 percent of all IT positions available remain unfilled as an upshot of an appallingly low number of appropriately certified professionals. This shows that for every four jobs that are available around Information Technology (IT), there are only 3 trained people to do them.
Highly qualified and commercially certified new employees are correspondingly at a resounding premium, and it looks like they will be for a long time to come.
Surely, it really is the very best time to retrain into the IT industry.
Looking around, we find a myriad of professional positions up for grabs in IT. Finding the particular one in this uncertainty can be very difficult.
Flicking through a list of odd-sounding and meaningless job titles is next to useless. Surely, most of us have no concept what the neighbours do for a living - so we're in the dark as to the intricacies of a new IT role.
Contemplation on these different issues is important when you need to dig down the right solution that will work for you:
* Our personalities play a starring role - what gets you 'up and running', and what tasks put a frown on your face.
* Why it seems right starting in the IT industry - it could be you're looking to achieve a long-held goal such as working for yourself maybe.
* Is salary further up on your priority-scale than some other areas.
* Considering all that the IT industry encompasses, you'll need to be able to see the differences.
* How much time you will spend on your training.
In these situations, the only way to seek advice on these areas tends to be through a good talk with an advisor or professional who has a background in the IT industry (and specifically it's commercial needs and requirements.)
Validated exam simulation and preparation software is essential - and really must be offered by your training company.
As many IT examination boards are from the USA, you must be prepared for the way exams are phrased. It isn't good enough merely answering any old technical questions - it's essential that you can cope with them in the proper exam format.
You should make sure you verify whether you're learning enough by doing tests and mock ups of exams to prepare you for taking the real deal.
