Will be interesting to see what happens to the Integrated Schools marketing in the next few weeks, knowing that their supply of students will now be rapidly drying up with the lack of funding on offer.
I wonder if we will see if they now start touting Modular as the way to go "do a bit at at time, see how things pan out" "lower financial risk" etc etc coming out in their glossy brochures.
I'm so so glad I chose modular, so that I don't have a huge loan hanging over me with no job prospects. I have
a loan, but it is easily managable and nowhere near the amount each month that those Integrated guys need to find.
I've almost finished my training (too far into it to quit now), but I'd echo what WWW and others have said, and if anyone is thinking of getting into training, hold off for 12-18 months to see how things pan out with the industry. If you really must start, then at least go modular and do a stage at a time and then see how things are panning out before moving on.
