I am returning to work after a break
Our verdictA good use of it — recency is the problem, and this fixes recency.
The obstacle after a career break is rarely capability; it is a gap on the CV and the sense that your knowledge is out of date. A current qualification addresses both, and online mode fits around whatever the break was for.
What to check
- Choose flexibility over brand. Finishing matters far more than where.
- Pick a programme with real support — this is the situation where dropping out is most likely.
- A one-year PG diploma works just as well if two years is too much.
