Becoming a Planner?

yes that helps. thank you.
I know now this may be a silly question as it has so many factors involed in it.
but as an rail planner with 1 years experience how much is the salary?
and how CAN it go up to 5 years..
problem for me is that i am not fully sure weather i should enter the planning or enter the IT. its of course a decision I have to make but the more i know about them both the better planing I can make for the future

any idea?

Have a look at the job page.

Remember Planning is not about the money but it is about the Challenge. etc

Cheers

your right jaco. but money helps you get through life easier.

in response to the above answeres i can say it my be good to get into and at present there are lots of jobs in planning and as things become more wrapped up in processes and health and saftey, planning will be needed more. Will software kill the skills needed today and will we end up as glorified office administrators?

I don’t know but IT is hard and it is hard to keep up, no sooner had I finished the microsoft curriculum then the next version came out and thus making a need for 2 upgrade exams at great cost. It is the most popular thing to get into which has driven wages very very low considering the knowledge/skills one must have.
I’d say stay away from IT, the only people who make money in IT are those who were good at it in school and continue to do it now many years later. IT takes a long time to become good and experienced, you have to go through at least 5 years to learn basics on very low money.

oh and most of them are wierd!
