    If needs be you can easily pick up a Management qualification -Diploma in management studies, Professional Management certificate, PG Cert/ Dip in management-- and soon be upto the level of a business grad as a result.

    Yeah Phil - you're right. They give those away like sweeties.

    Oh is this guy still at it with the same questions over and over again, and why do people keep advising him, haven't you got it yet that it's all pointless. He just wants to ask and talk and ask again and talk and if he had the intelligence to listen and take in what is said and follow through, he wouldn't be struggling with his degree. You're all wasting your time, you can't put sense where there is none.

    I meant there are lots of ways to get business knowledge if you must must have it for your job. You can easily find somewhere that offers one of those qualifications.

  • Phil doesn't need a degree to get on, he needs a big kick up the !!!! to get him to move out of his parents and join the rest of the working world.

    You don't need a business degree to do management - my dad is a company executive and he's got a degree in metallurgy... its about personality and ability at your job.

    Motivation is what you need, but a degree helps

    So Phil, is now a good time to ask how you got on with the shop application forms? Handed them in/sent them off?

    I'll keep you to that, i predict he will finish uni and just stay at home and ask pointless questions on mse, then eventually he will get a job, and then come back here and report that is crap!....
