[LUG] Useful IT courses



I successfully applied for an Individual Learning Account (ILA) with a view to 
getting some dosh toward by postgrad study fees - behold and lo the money 
can't be used in this way.

On telephoning it transpires it can be used for IT courses, and the person on 
the phone suggested all sorts of useful courses I might like to try, such as 
"Introduction to Outlook" and even "How to use Microsoft Word".   Obviously my 
first degree was completely wasted if the government thinks I need £150 to do 
that sort of thing.

Does anyone know of any USEFUL courses that could be paid for with an ILA.   
I've always meant to attack PERL seriously at some point and my Linux-Mandrake 
set-up relies more on prayer than any ability on my part?   ILA's are 
available (I think) from either www.my-ila.com or www.my-ila.gov.uk or 
suchlike.

Many thanks

Paul Hewson
