    Hi Everyone

    I'm tossing up whether or not to do the Westlawn or the YDS course.............and all your comments have been valuable and I'm leaning towards the YDS course because of the cost i.e. pay as you go. But I am wondering which of these courses have the most industry cred when comes to finding a job.........all comments are welcome

    Thanks

    Van

    in the Education forum.

    General Consensus of people in the industry seems to be an Engineering or NA degree is what you need.

    General consensus of people dreaming of being in the industry seems to be that mail order is just as good.

    Check with classifieds, headhunters

    It might be worth looking through old issues of PBB in the classified ads and checking with Susie Bush, Tom Cassidy, Bryan Spencer, whoever runs Anchor Solutions now, and Todaro (all industry recruiter agencies) for some feedback.
