Hoped to find some advice for mature students here. I'm certainly not looking for a 3 year degree course at this stage, I've realised I should be aiming for the level 4 course HNC so think that will be my priority. If it goes well there seems to be the option to go onto join the diploma level 5 course if I'm wanting to further study.
But due to financial reasons I might just want to try and find a job in the wildlife industry then, maybe in animal conservation or rescue. If anyone has studied a similar course or has knowledge working in the industry I'd love to hear any advice.
I'd also like to know where I should start regarding study preparations for a course. I need to practice general study skills along with improving my knowledge in relevant areas as I don't want to start at a disadvantage. Should I just be looking at A-Level Biology in the Ecology/zoology modules to get up to speed there?
