LabelNO. OF TRAINING COURSES (NON-QUALIF)
Question text I'd like to continue by talking about any training courses lasting 3 days or longer which didn't lead to qualifications, Excluding the ones we have just talked about. Include access courses, Government Training Schemes and courses which could help with reading, writing or number work. Also include. training courses provided by your employer, but not those that just showed you how to do a job when you first started. How many training courses of this nature have you attended?
