to Computeach |
A
groom from Hindley, Wigan has mucked out her monotonous job to ride
into a stable career in the IT industry. After four years grooming
horses for Greater Manchester police, Ann Marie Ingram felt she
was saddled with poor prospects, so she enrolled on a training programme
that helped her swap bits for bytes.

"It wasn't a
well paid job and I had to work shifts. The IT industry offered the prospect
of high earnings and a long term career," Ann Marie explains. Despite
knowing nothing of computers and how they worked, she was champing at
the bit to gain the IT skills that would allow her to change tack and
work in the industry.
Having combed the
papers she came across an advert for IT training pioneers Computeach International,
and Ann Marie realised that she could overcome the hurdle of earning whilst
she learnt as it was a distance learning program. "Working shifts
meant I could fit in my studies around work as and when time allowed,"
she recalls.
Established in 1964,
Computeach has helped thousands of its students to achieve career success
and boasts a first time exam pass rate of over 80%. The company's emphasis
is very much upon career development, with its own recruitment division,
Software Professionals, training students in job-seeking skills such as
aptitude tests, interview techniques and compiling a CV.
Ann Marie, 36, now
has a new career as a trainee programmer for a software house in Sharston
and she's delighted with her new position: "I now work regular hours
and enjoy weekends off. I also earn more money and my prospects are much
better," she beams.
Her success is one
of thousands of similar stories from students who have enrolled with Computeach,
and she offers these words of advice to anyone looking to grab the reins
of a runaway career: "To succeed on a course such as this you have
to be determined to change your career."
She concludes, "I
now have an improved lifestyle and more free time to enjoy it."
