Where am I?

And I have had my reservations about the usefulness of the course because in 6 months, I have went from not touching any Adobe applications before in my life to knowing a lot of shortcuts and likes for Photoshop and Illustrator (although I admit the InDesign knowledge would be good). But £6000 to learn to use InDesign is a bit steep methinks.

Having wasted so much time, I am keen not to waste much more, although I fully understand that design is not a field which can be learned on a whim and I am willing to put in 24 hours a day work if it means getting to grips with the industry as quick as possible! (I've grown up!)

On that note, there is a course offered by Interactive Design Institute (or something?) on graphic design for a full BA Honours. Are there any other distance learning courses/part-time courses which you kind fellas can recommend/suggest I take a look at? Scotland seems to be devoid of much quality in this area sadly.

If I'm honest, I've never known or heard Scotland to have any good design courses. But then I've never bothered looking. Might be an idea to get in touch with some universities and get some prospectuses (prospectai??) - never needed to say prospectus in plural!!

Someone on here may be able to vouch for a decent designed related course up there but sorry to say I can't.
