    Hi OP,
    would love to do a photography course myself BUT all the photography courses I am interested in doing are all on Monday nights which doesn't suit me. Any other night would be fine.

    Is it just me or does anyone else think the WIT Adult Education are poor at keeping students informed about courses they have signed up for?
    A simple email would do especially since it is Oct now and you would kind of think you would have heard from them by now.

    I paid online to do a night course in early sept and up until I sent an email yesterday I hadnt heard from them to let me know if the course would go ahead or not. They replied to me today to say that numbers are low and they have extended the application deadline and they will be in touch next week. This happened to me last year also and I had to make contact with them to find out. Unfortunately last year the course I wanted to do was cancelled due to poor numbers. Nobody in waterford wanted to learn french last year except for me apparently :D

    - BFG

    Same thing happened to me a couple of years ago, no contact, then I had to chase up getting my money back, haven't bothered since.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,200 ✭✭✭kensutz


    Almost giving me an idea to start running classes for people. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 533 ✭✭✭baronflyguy


    kensutz you should you know and as long as it's not on a monday night I would be very interested :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,200 ✭✭✭kensutz


    I'll gauge interest and see what happens. I know a few other people are asking me to help them out with their photography.

    I didnt have any bother getting my money back, it was just the non contact especially since they had my email address it would have costed them nothing to keep me informed. Anyhow, it is not a major thing but would be something nice for them to do and be more customer focused.

    Cool, well keep me in mind if you decide to do something. Might know another guy who would be interested in doing a photography course also.

    I would be interested as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,684 ✭✭✭Luckycharms_74


    I'm interested too, but €650 + €150 reg is a bit much in this economy to pay for City & Guilds course :p

    Great website Ken and some super pics. How did you get started and did you get any lessons or just all self taught.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,200 ✭✭✭kensutz


    Taught myself. All my own doing really from constant practice to pure cheek. ;)
