I welcome fair comments, I welcome communications which raise questions, but in fairness you should not attack anyone or have anyone attack you

431844 2006-02-18 09:16:00 That's a very comprehensive list of online training options, Creighton.
I congratulate you on the effort you've obviously put into it. A search finds information on a multiplicity of topics.

Hewlett Packard also run free online training courses every so often, ranging from beginners' subjects to web development. I know one set started recently, so probably their website's worth a look also?

I agree that questions are fair, but attack isn't - so add to your hope that will be respected in this thread.

Do you consider the links to be examples of the sorts of things we should be pursuing? Or are they to help us to learn more?

Andrew

In some regards they may be worth persuing for a possibility of business acumen which may lead to potentially more information manifestations or skills which serve as individuals, others or a nation.

Will it help us learn more? I have read some previous literature awhile ago that when we learn we develop skills also to learn, so it may help with learning although I don't have exact figures to correlate as at this stage they seem not to exist from what perusings of information i have come across.

My weekends would be so lost without them -I now have something to keep myself occupied.

Creighton - you sound like a clever bloke.
What do you make of all this Telecom debacle?

Is it true that you're an ex-director of the McLaren F1 team?
