Logical Person

You have an organised and logical turn of mind and will probably be happier to work behind the scenes rather than directly with customers or clients of a business. You probably prefer to have a defined set of tasks to complete and a timetable in which to complete them and you may well thrive on meeting deadlines! On the down side, you may find that dealing with other peoples’ problems or emotions a bit trying so it would suit you better to steer away from a job where you had to deal with these sorts of challenges. You probably enjoy making things work and understanding how they work so dealing with technical issues will probably give you an interesting challenge.

The courses that you could consider taking are: Sage Computerised Book-Keeping, Sage Payroll, Practical Book-Keeping, Chartered Insurance Institute Certificate in Financial Administration, or one of the computing courses for example CompTIA A+, CompTIA network +, Microsoft Desktop Support Technician or Computer Programming Visual basic.net.

Social Person

You will be ideally suited to a career where keeping customers happy is important to you. They also show that you have good organizational skills so you will be a useful member of a team where systems and processes are in place, although you won’t be the most organised person there! It is unlikely that you will be happy working exclusively with technology, although you will be happy to use it to get the job done. Working with your instinct will come easily to you and talking things over with friends and colleagues is also important for you.

You could consider career options where the focus is on working with other people, so the courses that will work best for you are: Professional Development Courses such as Personnel Skills or Life coaching. The Chartered Institute of Marketing Certificate blends commercial and creative skills with a focus on the customer. Alternatively our social care courses develop skills in understanding how people work to make you even more effective at working with other people. Our introduction to counselling, child day care, child psychology, criminology or psychology courses would all fit your preferred style.

Organiser

Your preference for organisation will make you a really valuable member of any team where systems and processes are important. Because you like to have time to deal with problems thoroughly, deadlines may give you cause for concern, but, as long as you have enough time to deal with your work, you will feel more comfortable.

If your focus is more around organizing others then a career in management might be for you – consider our business courses to take the first step e.g. business management, business essentials, and business communications. If you would like to work in a specialist area within a company, your preference to organising will make the following options ideal for you: Chartered Insurance Institute Certificate in Financial Administration, Chartered Institute of Marketing Certificate.

Entrepreneur

Being organised and having processes to follow is probably not too important to you, you are happy to be free spirit and go with your instincts and ideas. Your ideal job will be where you can be innovative and able to use your creativity to its best advantage.

You do not need to know how things work – just what they can do for you, so whilst you are probably happy to use computers and technology, they are not the most important parts of your life!

The Home Learning College courses that will suit you best are: Professional Development Courses, Business and Travel courses, and Microsoft Office. If you also enjoy working creatively you could also consider Adobe Dreamweaver with a view to working with websites.
