I did some online courses during lockdown in mental health with children as its something I'd love to do. Typically I'd like to go into a school so I'm able to take and fetch my little one to and from school but would be open to other placements. Has anyone done these courses and actually got a job from them. I'm willing to do voluntary for a while or shadowing someone to get hands on experience but would they actually take it seriously as its not a practical course? Have I wasted my time doing these?
