Hi,
I have decided the best way for me to learn the 'black art' of railway signalling is to set myself a target of passing the Irse exams (namely 2,3 in 2011).
I'm not interested in just the decoration of the exam on my CV. (no disrespect intended). I want to have goals to strive towards for my continuing development, and to test my understanding of the industry.
I have set a revision target of approximate 10 hr per week, but currently averaging about 5hrs due to work ect. (12hr days!)
I've worked as a testing engineer for 8 years, I so I believe I have a good foundation to work from.
Feel free to let me know if I am in the right frame of mind and position to be attempting the exams.
Cheers ppl,
Fil
