Posted By Robert Weiland Looking to start a new course in September and up until this morning I was all set for the Diploma at North Notts College. However I am now looking at the NVQ as my employer is a bit funny about day release. Anyone recommend NVQ courses around the Sheffield area - Distance learning not a major problem as will travel to suit. Cheers

Posted By IanD Hi Robert North Notts. used to offer an afternoon / evening diploma course, maybe you could come to a compromise with your boss, work the morning and attend the afternoon /evening class, thereby minimising your time away from work. Regards Ian

Posted By Steptoe I started the NVQ 4 with sheilds about 6 weeks a go, I can highly recommend them, they have a great team of assessors and you also get assigned your own portfolio manager to help you build the pofolio and guide you through it all. It was mainly Steve I was chatting to but there is also a Pat and a few Mikes that can give you further information, their telephone number is 01482 806805 or www.sheilds.org Good Luck. S.T.
