•You will hear five another recording. Each speaker is expressing one opinion.•

Well in a sense I’ve got no choice in the matter. No one’s actually told me to get the qualification. It’s just that from my point of view, my own sense of confidence, if you like, I feel that if I’m going to be responsible for instructing other people in the company, then I should do something to improve my own level of knowledge. On the other hand, I don’t know what I feel about the course it self. One thing is for sure, I am not looking forward to the journey there and back every day. It’s going to be very tiring. Mind you, I know I shouldn’t complain. It’s only for a month after all.

Yes, the course content does look good in the brochure. I know in a sense I shouldn’t complain. After all it’s a chance to enhance my skills and knowledge. And that’s welcome at times. But it’s still a bit of gamble, isn’t it? I just have to hope it really does improve my chances of hanging on to my job here. It’s a bit frightening, to tell you the truth, with so many pople having to go. After g0 years in a company, you don’t want to think about being out of work, do you? But I really wish the brochure would tell you more. It looks good, as I said, but there’s no detail, nothing on the time or the teachers. So I feel a bit in the dark really.
