New Year - New Start

I get to meet and talk to all sorts of different people in my business and recently have begun to wonder just why women don't enter the world of IT. Having worked in it all my life I can tell you that it is.
  • Well paid
  • In turns very challenging, frustrating and satisfying
  • Very good for travel you can spend January in Florida and June in Cannes if you pick the right job
  • Not just about IT - the best paid IT managers have now got an array of business and marketing qualifications and that's what gets them the job.

At The Learning Space, one of my greatest pleasures is getting women into the right career in IT. A couple of months ago, a lovely woman contacted me, she wanted to study for a qualification in Computer Support so she could start a computer support business now that the children had grown up. She had such great plans and determination and I feel sure she will succeed in her venture. I'll look forward to telling you about her progress.

Please drop me a line if you want some advice or change of career and not sure how to go about it. I'd love to help.
