Getting into engineering

bugs

Hi all,

Apologies if this is in the wrong place. I'm after some advice, I'm looking at changing career from IT to electronic engineering and wanted opinions on the best route I have looked at the open university on their degrees and seeing if I can use my IT qualifications to count towards it. I just wanted to know if this is the best way forward or is there training courses I can look at. All advice is greatly appretiated.
