Cabin Crew E-Diploma

Has anyone heard of anyone doing the E-Diploma on cabincrewdirect.co.uk?

Any thoughts on whether its worth doing?

Cheers,

Not sure if any airlines look on it as an asset to be honest, and as all airlines operate differently, its best to go for a course in travel, then when of age approach airline interviews with an open mind.

We have had a thread about this topic some time ago, try to do a search.
My personal opinion is that I wouldn't bother wasting money with a CC course. Airlines will do it anyway after they've hired you, and the way they like it. And they will hire you if your profile fits. If they need experienced CC, a course will give you none: it's on the field you gain experience.
If I were you I'd keep my money and focus on sending CVs. And read a book or two about CC careers if really you want to be prepared for interviews. Good luck.

Many years ago I was offered a job at a private college, that offered a diploma in flight studies (or something similar).
After looking into what was offered, I declined the job as I realised that it was just a rip-off for the poor b**tards that were being conned into shelling oot their hard-earned, on a half-promise of a job.
If i were you, I'd follow the previous advice, and wait for a job from an airline, but in the meantime, ensure that you have some experience in a hospitality etc. environment.
Good Luck!
