It has been good and bad to be honest.
Good in that I can already apply the course concepts into my work, which has made some big improvements in the business already

Bad in that it takes a lot of time, especially because I'm doing it part time, and I misjudged how much time I needed to put into it. From next year I'm going to give myself a day a week off next year concentrate on it properly.
Still I'm sat on a distinction so far this year, and the next two modules are the ones I was looking forward to this year
Best decision I ever made

thanks rich. i'm really in addition to hoping to get professional growth from it, but hoping to get personal growth more than anything. i also want to increase my efficiency and just develop the way i think. i feel like i've stagnated a lot this past year, if not even fell backwards a little bit... horrible feeling

Well we should swap notes and ideas for sure. Networking is a huge part of the business and personal development aspect.

I was at a weekend tutorial this past weekend (funnily enough) and managed to give out almost 100 cards to people and tutors.
