    I see IT Blanch are doing some short courses for the currently unemployed.
    http://www.itb.ie/site/startover/index.htm

    I have completed a degree in Electrical and Electronic engineering and was wondering which would be the best one to do. I'm thinking I'll apply for the project management one.
    Would either of the CAD(3D or ecdl CAD) courses be of benefit. We never did any CAD in college.

    Thanks for any words of wisdom.

    If you haven't done CAD before I'd recommend doing the ECDL CAD course before going near the 3D course. (most jobs don't require 3D skills)
    You will need a basic understanding of CAD for most jobs you apply for, I know any graduate engineers that we employ with no CAD skills are sent out on a training course straight away.
