Personal Development

I've started the road to my next lot of education by signing up as a student at the Open University Business School. Initially, I'm taking the Professional Certificate of Management but I'm hoping to then go on to do an MBA.

As part of my initial reading, I've started reading James Caan's autobiography and it's actually very insightful. I'd recommend reading it even if you have no interest in business as it's a fantastic story in it's own right.

Almost there...

So

I have an exam on quantitive research methods on Friday. I'm finding revising for this incredibly tedious but I guess it has to be done. I also have a multiple choice test to do online by Saturday night and then my first year at university is complete.

I can't believe how quickly it's gone. It only seems like yesterday that I was severely depressed and agonising over having to work in IT for the rest of my life. Time flies and all that... :)

Now that i'll have lots of time on my hands, I hope to start blogging more frequently.

Not long to go now

In about a month, I will have finished my first year at university which I have to say feels pretty amazing.

I'm not on the home stretch yet though - 2 MCQ tests, one 1000 word research paper evaluation, one piece of group research with a 1500 word write up, one assessed presentation, one takeaway exam and one unseen exam.
