I was going through the selection process for RFA, but just got a letter saying they've had a budget review for recruitment. As a result they have cancelled a lot of courses, including mine, and I will need to re-apply when they start recruiting again.
If you don't fancy going regular you can always go part time. Depending on trade you can pick and choose where and when you want to go.
As an example, here are some of the places I've been:
I am a Social Worker currently responsible for the care of a number of people with dementia, brain injury and mental illness. I have been qualified for 15 years and have always worked in mental illness.
I would rather be sitting in a shack in the woods with a strong coffee, smoking a big cigar and writing my first novel. Hence the lottery ticket. A pound a week for a licence to dream
I also teach. Notionally trained to teach Religious Studies, but I specialise in Philosophy and also do some Critical Thinking and Games (a couple of afternoons a week out of my classroom is great).
Generally, in spite of the bad press teaching can sometimes get, I enjoy my job and it would take quite a lot to shift me from it. If I ever were to move, I'd probably look for something in the drinks industry.
I am a Staff Sergeant in the US military stationed at RAF Lakenheath. Have been in England almost 5 years now and I LOVE it. Great weather and nice people!
I'm an Area Manager for a Swiss firm called Lista, managing a team of sales people and distributors in the northern half of the UK. We supply industrial workspace equipment to manufacturing companies, much of which goes into the aerospace industry - Airbus, BAE Systems, etc. We also supply F1 teams, hospitals and lots of other businesses that demand high quality storage and working environments. It's a little like interior design a lot of the time. There is also a computerized element to it, as we sell electronic access controlled systems for dispensing tooling.
6 years in the business, work from home and spend 2 or 3 days on the road. It's not a bad job at all!
I am a Computer programmer working for a company called LexisNexis in the e.leaning field . Mainly for accountants......Its a dry subject at the best of times We delivery short seminars online for download or streaming, from basic book keeping to paper for paper share dealing etc.
I am lucky in the fact I work from home mostly and do flexi-time.
