Hello friends,
Could you help me out here, i am thinking of training to be air conditioning engineer in Australia, i am heading to Southport in Queensland in September.
Would you be kind enough to give me some pointers, costs, requirements, etc?
I am 40, i feel i would suit my skills and personality, where would i train, what training do i need, what costs would i incur, what course do i need to take, and would i get a job at the end of the day?
Do you all think it is a good idea?
P.S. My educational background is good, very good, but i do not know how transferrable, more manufacturing biased, UK educated and trained. I am more than capable.
Cheers Keith. Happy Christmas
