Was bored and looking through the tea-spot and I came across this thread. A perfectly good thread with no replies. So I decided to get it going!
I studied Music at Bangor University in Wales (one of the top universities in the UK). Did 4 years of that finishing last summer (summer 2011).
Failed in my search for a job in the months that followed, so around Christmas, I really had to consider what I was going to do next. I initially thought about going back to university to do a masters degree, but decided against it because of how much it would have cost.
Eventually I decided to look at what courses were available at the local college in Bangor (since I've stayed up there to live, despite not being from there). In the end, I decided to enroll on a full time course to study electrical installation, where I'll gain a level 2 diploma in electrical installation and an NVQ in electrical engineering. By the end of the year, I'll know everything there is to know about electrical installation and I'll be able to wire a house if I want. In simple terms, I'm training to become an electrician.
The first year of the course is full time, and then there's 2 years part time to follow (during which I'll be working with a company as an apprentice).
So that's me. Who wants to go next?!
