Re: Gis?

To be honest Chris, I'm not entirely sure which direction I want to take as yet. I just seemed to see G.I.S mentioned a fair bit when browsing through jobs. When I worked as a ranger previously, I was mainly in the field and enjoyed that aspect of the job, so perhaps if I aim to spend more time in the field, like you say, G.I.S might not be of the greatest importance to me.

My current career change investigations are focussing on Public Rights of Way and access. Before (and if) I take the plunge and leave teaching, I want to be as informed as possible on which direction to take and whether or not I need to undertake a postgraduate distance learning course. And, as a teacher, I need to explore the sphere of Environmental Education as well.

Anyway, thanks for your input, it's been really helpful.

Regards, Chris
