well, just come to the start of my 3rd year and its going pretty well so far.
my 1st was full time at college doing basic machine shop skills and one day doing a BTEC ONC. the second year was then just the one day finishing off the ONC.

now i've finished that and me and the other apprentice were going back to do a HNC, but have now moved to Yeovil college to do a foundation degree (which i think is better), but instead of it being organised and alot of people, there's 3 of us, and we all work for the same company.

just thought it was strange, anyone else had a course like this?
