Single Mum to Baby - ideas for retraining in the evenings?!

I have a degree in a pointless subject. I also have no free time in the day to study. Ideas for how careers I could train for in the evenings please! X

What is your degree in? What are you interested in? What work experience do you have? (don't worry if you don't have much work experience, just trying to help work out what kind of thing would suit you!)

What kind of career do you think you are suited for?

I'm in this boat too! I'm currently looking at the OU as you can study in your own time. I'd like to maybe train in cyber security but IDK if it's a pipe dream or if it would suit me. What is your wishlist for a new role? For example, mine is:

Work/life balance
Flexible absence policy (possibly will need self-employed... see my username lol) with as little presenteeism as possible
Mentally interesting/challenging work
Variety in what I do all day
Problem solving
Good pension
Affordable training (or payment plan)
No frequent heavy lifting

I'm starting with what sort of role I want to land and working backwards because I have no idea how to figure it out otherwise!

You could do a degree with The Open University in something you're interested in.

depends on a lot of variables! what are your skills? preferences? what do you enjoy? etc
