You shouldn't have much trouble in getting a job in today's climate. A lot of guys around me in the industry are looking for a way out. Some have even ended up where you already are!
If a lot of companies are like mine, there are finance guys trying to get numbers of engineers down to 'acceptable levels' which is guru speak for not enough engineers on the job. Many guys are leaving over the next few years through retirement. With others leaving over pay and conditions, chances of getting in are better all the time.
The Kingston course sounds good, but I hear there is a lot of 'equation soup' on the course. Reports are favourable though. Good luck.
