An agency worker told me today that a manager she knows has said if our qualifictations are before 2000, we need to update them. I know how messages can get mixed so I wondered if anyone had heard this form anywhere or has a link to anything official. A couple of people were a bit scared by the idea. Me included!

Does anyone out there know of any trainer training, or fairly local to Pickering in Yorkshire for my sis. I have a C21 which probably doesn't exist any more, but this is the sort of thing she needs. Can anyone help?
