zendude Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 way too many useless skillsfuture courses out there that they allow to have inflated prices. stop the rubbish 2 week courses run by retired uncles. establish a syllabus with some standard to teach the subjects properly for minimum of 3 months and arrange job attachments. at least, we can say the govt tried. now they just don't care. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
