Dammit! My AFF fund just got spent on a PRINCE2 training course :( All £1600 ($3200) of it

Hopefully means better prospects when I get the training and more $$$ in the long run but its still grinds me.

Its short for PRoject IN a controlled Enivronment. Basically if you want a job as a project manager in the UK you need this qualification. Normal people get thier company to pony up for it...mine wont so I was forced to spend the cash myself.

Edit: I'm actually really happy now. Ah so the AFF money is gone, who cares lots of worse stuff can happen. Maybe its just a syndrome of life and parachuting. Everything that can will come and take money away from you when you least expect it!

Dude, will the qualifications you'll recieve directly benefit your company? If so then that's BS that the cost isn't coming out of their training budget. If that's the case i'd be looking for a company that will pay for it.

I think its more of a if I get this training course I'll be looking for either a) a big raise or b) a new company or c) both.

I know how you feel. I want to attend a sniper training course. My company won't send me because the client requires that I have attended this course either in the military or in Law Enforcement. Basically........I have to already be qualified in order to attend this course again!?!?!?!? Nuts ain't it. I'll go pay for it myself though. I need that "Hard Skill" to make me more employable.

Erm...who the heck do you wrok for? I'm guessing some personal protection comapny?

Its like everything in life. My degree is one and this will be too. The actual benefit may not be a great deal but all this does is open doors to jobs that you need these qualifications just in order not to get filed under "bin" at the first interview stage.
