Can I just alert the British public to one simple fact – higher education does not ‘centre’ around universities and colleges. You don’t have to spend the early part of your adult life studying a subject so broad that it’s pretty meaningless in the real work world.

City and Guilds centers across the world run large variety of specialised course in all kinds of useful subjects, from engineering to photography, and counselling to food technology. Rather than drink three years of your life away and end up with a qualification of the same value as millions of others, do something that will actually gear your career in the right direction and give you practical skills for pursuing your chosen career.

There are city and guilds centers all over Britain as well as all over the world, so you don’t necessarily have to commute to far away. But some of the courses come alongside a work placement which may mean you do change locations – it depends on your situation and needs. All I’m trying to say is, higher education does not necessarily start in halls of residence. Comprende?
