Initial settings

In advance of officially enrolling, I have today downloaded a sample learning document from the OCA website relating to the Photography 1 course.

I have spent a few hours looking through the document and have made a preparatory start.

The engineer in me likes to get a wide overview of the brief, understand the scope of work and make a preliminary schedule.

To that end, I have

(i) created a time based project plan complete with tasks and subtasks based on the OCA document contents page.

However like the mice and the men, I expect some slippage here.

(ii) created a directory structure on my PC to organise and store my digital work.


(iii) made a list of materials needed in order to get started.

Oh! And I also re-joined the local library after a number of years being lazy and just googling stuff.

Today (12/01/2014) I have received confirmation that student finance is available, so I have now chosen my 3 level 4 options and submitted my enrolment form to the OCA. According to the student finance letter, I should be able to start my course, proper on Feb 5th.
