Wife minds our 2 young pre-school children at moment. Gave up secretarial job a few years ago as wage would not pay for childminder. Thinking about undertaking further training to help rejoin workforce ina few years when things pick up. Any ideas of courses/qualifications which would increase chances of landing job. Does not necessarily have to be office/secretarial work
What is it that your wife would like to do? There is no point recommending courses without narrowing it down a little at least. What qualifications does she have at present?
Counselling courses are extremely expensive to complete. Apart from the study, they involve paying a counsellor (as you have to undergo counselling yourself) and a lot of unpaid hours before getting certified. I have friends who have done it and one said the cost added up to about €14K over 4 years.
