Hi folks.I have some employment related questions, specifically, I'm wondering in what parts of the computer field blind folks are finding work these days. Or,
If there is a list specifically for blind computer professionals, or more generally, employment of blind folks, please mention it and I'll gladly take this over there.
Both teaching music and mixing and mastering audio are both not getting me anywhere in terms of income. It's sadly, time for me to just forget about the music business as anything more than a hobby, and find work elsewhere.
if you were going to retrain presently, what area would you focus on? Networking? Coding? Smartphone App developing? Something else?
I attended university before the first big dot com boom and bust in the late 1990's. Back then, a computer science degree was golden. I have no idea if that's the case now, or where the money and opportunities are.
I'm also wondering who offers correspondence courses that has a reputable name. i.e. not some fly by night operation or free course somewhere, but an institution with distance learning options and real credibility and name recognition. And, preferably somewhere that can offer something focused, specialized, and intensive. I need to take something over the next year or two, not four years or more, and am prepared to work flat out to finish it.
Thanks for any ideas or pointers to more appropriate lists. Chris --------------------------------------------------CTS MASTERING, affordable and professional mixing and mastering: http://www.ctsmastering.com
