For my undergraduate degree I studied modern languages, but aside from the qualification I have rarely used the languages themselves and often regretted undertaking such a subject with no obvious career path to follow.
Having been a SAHM for the best part of 5 years and now having a bit of time for myself, I am thinking of getting back into education to try and do something a bit more vocational - perhaps accountancy (more bookkeeping than professional accountant), that may give me an opportunity to work for myself around the needs of my children. Has anyone found themselves in the same situation as me, taken on extra studies and gained work as a result?
