Hi Ruby,
I would suggest to connect with people who have vast experience in Project Management, this is a ocean and you have to decide weather you have to take a deep dive or enjoy surfing.
Then find a mentor, a mentor will always guide you correctly as their advices would be unbiased and they will provide right guidance.

Best of luck

Thank you Mounir, I will look on Bookboon.com. I have applied for a online course which has bee been reduced from £199 to £44, I'm going to give that a shot, then as you suggested,will look into other courses which are more expensive. I'm going to try and look at what experience I can get in project management within my team At the moment I am contracting, so not sure if they will allow me to do any project work. Many Thanks Ruby
