The bad news came in late last week; due to funding I would not be able to return to oxford in the near future. Dammit.
Well as they say, when one door close’s another opens, so I have been doing a little research into Courses and training in the web development industry.
Since I have been with pentangle I have learnt a lot. By working with the company and Alun I have seen the inside workings of an ethical web development company. I have the skills now to deliver the high quality sites and I have the knowledge to go on and develop more.
Interestingly, the web industry is not qualification led. It is portfolio led, and in recent months and years i have been amassing quite a large and strong portfolio.
With the recent sites like merritts lotus and only organic I have been building a very technically, and visually strong portfolio. It seemed like the time was right to formalise this.
This far ahead nothing is guaranteed but the signs predominantly seem good. I am hoping to start a Course in September with Sae UK which will give me the official qualification, and form there I can continue on and add to my degree study with the Open University.
So that the plan, lets see what happens.

There are some bad news and good news, but over all it seems that you find a way out, which is good in a lot of sense. You’ve the time to create many websites, which is one of your obsessions and strength. Don’t let the (perceiving) lack of academic qualification stop you. You’ll do well.
I’ll see you if I come back to the UK.
