It was a Plymouth Uni course run at my local College. So officially I was a Plymouth student being taught by standard College lecturers. I even paid the same amount as Plymouth students. I very much regret doing it now.

what i have noticed, the nurse can do most of the jobs, GP that is.
An experienced nurse is much better than a new inexperienced doctor !!!
In general health knowledge experience counts.
To avoid confusion, please could people be aware of the difference between University and the new breed of NuLabour funded Ex-Polytechnic-NightSchool-former-Leisure-Centres such as Oxford Brookes "University", Thames-Valley "University" or "University" of Eastern Anglia (AKA University of Easy Access) etc.
Ben are you scared of your degrees with honoured be down graded?nah just kidding, your degree is safe with me.
what i have noticed in Australia anyway, specialized doctors are quite selfish. They trained as small amount of specialized doctors as possible so that there is LESS competition for them and have to wait for them for ever to see one of the specialist!!!
Perhaps Ben would care to enlighten us on the subject of his own alma mater.
No, I'm not being protective of my degree per se. I am being protective of my patients who are increasingly (and dangerously) being fobbed off by the current Government with "specialist nurseys".
Workforce planning in the health sector is notoriously difficult. It is not due to "selfish" reasons that competition for specialist places is so intense, it is so your consultants are the cream of the crop. This is not determined by the current workforce, it is determined by the Government and specialist colleges.
University of Wales, College of Medicine (now Cardiff University since 2005).
specialist colleges doing this on purpose to protect their really high pay job.
Why can't they trained more specialists, work less hours, earn abit less and enjoy life more?
Yeah, Telstra, you're quite right. You should be in charge of it all.

Some of our Dutch Polytechnics (such as Wageningen Polytechnic and The Technical Polytechnic of Delft) were converted into universities. Mind you, here that means most courses taught there are actually harder than the courses in regular universities.

It's all a question of degree (no pun intended). Ben looks down on students at former Polytechnics because he went to the University of Wales, Cardiff. Many of us could equally well look down on Ben for having attended Cardiff.
Some of the new universities have excellent departments and some of the older universities have some pretty ropey ones. Anyone going to University these days needs to be far more discriminating in their choice of subject and institution than Ben is in his diatribe.
