2009: MT264 - Designing Applications with Visual Basic
The washing basket was settling down a little now, Phillip was a toddler and starting nursery, which gave me more time back to concentrate on reducing that never-ending pile.
This was a relatively new course on offer for the OU, and I had done lots of VB work at the office during the 'down times' at work, in fact it was helping a lot for me to cut my 'coding teeth' on.
I was starting to relax into the idea of software development as a path, and figured this was a good place to go as it would be something I could use at work and home to give me lots of practice.
That idea didn't quite work as the VBA and VB.net coding environments turned out to be quite different in places. But it was a great course, which I finished with a result just a modicum short of distinction grade. Drat and Yay at the same time eh?
After taking advice from my developer 'mentor' at work 'Bazman', I decided web development skills were probably a good thing to get in my arsenal next.
