Hi all,
Am thinking about going back to college full-time (work part-time etc) but wondering if this course would be any good in peoples experiences:
Body Repair / Vehicle Refinishing Pre-Apprentice
Always had an interest in the bodywork side of things and think it'd be a good skill to have and so on.
Granted the current economy isn't fab but if can get this kinda thing now maybe by time i finish say in 1-2 years it may have blown over as such by then?
Input sorted

Dont do motor vehicle though do some kind of engineering course.

Yeah do soime research into were the world is heading and make a good decision.The car trade is on it's knees and always will be so fuck that.
I can see a massive future in new energy for homes etc so after i'll be looking into doing specialised courses into things like this.

I came out of the trade late last year, i wouldnt advise anyone to try and get in. Its shit money for the work you do, little opportunity for promotion, and the trade is increasingly going downhill. Your best bet would be to learn to do bodywork as a hobby really mate
