How about getting through the course first before asking for such advice. In the aviation world, things can change pretty quickly - just look at what happened after Sept 11th. Hundreds lost their jobs, there is now an excess of qualified pilots all looking for jobs. If something similar to 9/11 happens again, we could all be up !!!!! creek.
Good Luck with your training, but I'd at least get half way through before you start searching for a job and offering to work for free.
