    Hi all,

    Thought id take this time to introduce myself as i am new on here and plan on using the forum for a good few months to come!

    My name is Tom Sherlock and i live in Ashby , Leicestershire. I am 30 years old and looking to begin a new career in I.T. For the last 6 years after graduating university i have been playing professional basketball in the UK and Abroad. Also during this time i have been working in a school on and off in Derby for 4 years, supporting chidlren with special needs. As my Basketball career is coming to an end i am looking to begin a new one in I.T. I thought a good way to start would be to get some professional certs and look at getting a local company to take me on as a summer intern ! Of course i am willing to invest time and money into this and would be happy to hear from anyone with any encouragement or ideas of what is the best way to proceed!

    Currently i have very basic I.T skills, after gradauting university in U.S.A with a BSc in Computer information technology i have not been actively involved in any computer related business for 6 / 7 years. I am thinking of doing a complete re-learn of all the basic skills as they advance so quickly ( A+ and Network + quick course as a start )

    Thanks alot for looking Tom
