Default Re: OLCI training

Hi All

Im half way through my OLCI course but have not yet had the major issues some of you have been through, of course I have had to ask for exam and course dates more than 5 times, eventually receiving them, also OLCI had been calling me an awful lot at the end of 2007 to get all my payments up front, im not talking once or twice here, I think in total I had about 23 calls in the space of 3 months, that to me is a bit excessive, the guy got the message after I got really annoyed with him on his last call. Anyway, im actually enjoying the beginning of the career change and the course content but I always have loads of questions which spend a lot of time using other materials to figure out, I notice there have been some comments on previous posts that information on the OLCI course material tends to contradict itself, im finding that a lot, but there’s nothing like hands on and actually making the mistakes which are invaluable learning elements. Im also doing a fair amount of homers like fitting bathroom suites, repairing pipework, changing taps, changing and moving radiators ………….. I haven’t managed to flood anyone yet, Im actually pleased I went down this route, since im more at home doing physical work and feeling like ive actually earned what I get paid.

Long way to go yet though and lots more experience to gain…………
