Thank you to those who replied to my enquiry about distance learning
courses. Now I have information about a City and Guilds course and a Masters
course, and I have new questions...What sort of weight do people think these
qualifications carry in "the real world"... What sort of level is a City &
Guilds qualification? Has anyone studied for either of these and wished they
hadn't bothered? Are they actually relevant to the work?
