It’s really great that you’re reading this article! A fraction of the population say they enjoy their work, but most of us just bitch about it and do nothing. The fact that you’re here means we have a hunch that you’re at least considering retraining, which means you’re already ahead of the pack. Now you just need to research and follow-through.

We’d recommend that before you start any individual training program, you run through some things with a mentor who knows the industry and can give you advice. They can assess your personality and assist in finding the right role for you:

* Is working with other people your thing? Do you like to deal with the public? Maybe you like to deal with tasks that you can get on with on your own?

* What do you need from the market sector you work in? (Things do change – look at the building trade, or banks for example.)

* How long a career do you hope to have once retrained, and can the industry you choose provide you with that possibility?

* Will the information you learn allow you to find the work you’re looking for, and stay employable until you choose to stop?

We ask you to find out more about the computer industry – there are more jobs than employees, and it’s one of the few choices of career where the sector is expanding. In contrast to what some people believe, it isn’t just geeks gazing at their computer screens the whole day (if you like the sound of that though, they do exist.) The vast majority of roles are done by ordinary men and women who want to earn a very good living.

Searching for your first position in IT can feel more straightforward if you’re offered a Job Placement Assistance service. It can happen though that there is more emphasis than is necessary on this service, because it’s really not that difficult for a well trained and motivated person to find a job in this industry – as employers are keen to find appropriately qualified personnel.

Get your CV updated straight-away though – look to your training company for advice on how to do this. Don’t wait until you’ve qualified.

Quite frequently, you’ll secure your initial job whilst still on the course (even when you’ve just left first base). If your CV doesn’t say what you’re learning (and it hasn’t been posted on jobsites) then you won’t even be considered!

You’ll normally experience better results from a specialist independent regional employment service than you’ll experience from any course provider’s centralised service, as they’ll know local industry and the area better.

A constant frustration of various course providers is how hard people are prepared to study to get qualified, but how ill-prepared they are to market themselves for the job they have studied for. Have confidence – the IT industry needs YOU.

Being at the forefront of the cutting-edge of new technology is as thrilling as it comes. Your actions are instrumental in creating a future for us all.

We’re only just beginning to comprehend how this will truly impact our way of life. The way we interact with the world will be inordinately affected by computers and the web.

A standard IT employee in Great Britain has been shown to get a lot more than equivalent professionals in another industry. Standard IT remuneration packages are hard to beat nationally.

Experts agree that there’s a substantial national demand for trained and qualified IT technicians. It follows that with the constant growth in the marketplace, it appears this will be the case for a good while yet.

Starting with the idea that we have to home-in on the employment that excites us first, before we can even weigh up which training course fulfils our needs, how are we supposed to find the way that suits us?

As with no commercial background in the IT industry, how could any of us know what anyone doing a particular job actually does?

Ultimately, the right answer will only come from a careful study of many changing key points:

* The type of personality you have as well as your interests – the sort of work-centred jobs you enjoy or dislike.

* Are you hoping to get certified for a particular reason – for example, do you aim to work from home (self-employment possibly?)?

* Where do you stand on job satisfaction vs salary?

* Often, trainees don’t consider the work needed to gain all the necessary accreditation.

* What effort, commitment and time you’re prepared to spend on the training program.

To be honest, your only option to seek advice on these areas will be via a meeting with an advisor who has years of experience in Information Technology (and more importantly it’s commercial needs.)

Be careful that the exams that you’re considering will be recognised by employers and are the most recent versions. Training companies own certificates are generally useless.

Unless your qualification is issued by a big-hitter like Microsoft, Adobe, Cisco or CompTIA, then chances are it will have been a waste of time – as no-one will have heard of it.
