Changing from job to career advice.

[Nicky86]

A bit of background information to start off with. I'm stuck in a dead end job which I hate with a passion, however I've worked my self to near madness to put away a large sum in my eyes to better myself.

So I'm just looking for information on the industry I'm looking to get into, which is none destructive testing NDT. But I'm at a loss on where to start, which courses I need etc. I've looked on the net and I'm lost in all the information. I know that doing the courses needed doesn't give me the right to a job right away. Quite prepared to do some unpaid work on one of my days off to get some experience.

Any advice from people doing this job or any other will be great.
