I just wanted to put a small note on here to say that I have started a course at university. 7 years after leaving the education system, I'm now taking a course called the University Certificate in Advanced Office IT Applications.
Okay, it's not a degree or anything, but unlike other courses and qualifications I've done which have all been inside my work place, this one is run by my local university and I am officially classed as a student. I can join the Student Union if I want, and even become a Student Rep (although I won't).
The course is a progression on from the basic ECDL that I completed (if I recall correctly) early this year. It incorporates the Advanced ECDL but also has an extra module added on which requires that I develop an IT solution to a real world business problem.
It's classed as a 1 year part-time course, but it's expected to be completed by just after Christmas so it's not a long term thing. My favourite bit is that on completion of the course, not only can I apply for a further certificate called ECDL Expert, but I can become an Associate member of the British Computer Society (BCS), and put the initials AMBCS after my name!
