hes a brain surgeon
actually he was forced to do the N (not) V (very) Q (qualified) course by his boss as it has become a requirement in his trade in the uk, just wondered if it was worth anything.

It's a shame the NVQ never took off as it was a great vocational qualification, but the govt is obsessed with everyone getting a degree....what next a BA in bus driving, B.Sc in public hygiene management (toilet attendent).....
