Lets be very clear about this the only people making money out of this are the training schools and so far I have not see any evidence to support your claim that you got the job because of the course . |
I have never made that claim, I do think it helped but definitely not just the course.

I have nothing to disagree with there, there are also so many people in the game that don't have any relevant experience or know how and bluff their way through, I have had the displeasure of working with some of them on more than one occasion., they shouldn't be let loose at all. The sooner a formal qualification is released, the better.
