im currently doing a 3.5year apprenticship for volvo trucks, been going 2 leicester college (171miles away!!) since the start and i got about 6months left, only gotta go one more block of 2 weeks...

ive learnt so much, but its mainly volvo orientated, although its pretty much same shit...

gettin a btec and an nvq in heavy vehicle

now trying 2 sort out doing an hnc/d at a local college, cost is roughly 1100 4 the hnc or 1700 for the hnd...

its extremeally indepth stuff, and very challengin, but i think its worth the time and money
