Nå ringte jeg Benefit Delivery Centre

Jeg var på Sencia nå nemlig, og der sa de, at jeg måtte ringe dem.

Jeg har en personlig assistent der, som heter Barry.

Og det virker som et greit opplegg.

Jeg lot han få begge versjonene av CV-en min, (både JET CV-en, og den jeg har laget selv), og jeg skal tilbake dit på tirsdag, kl. 16, for å diskutere en bedre CV, (for ingen av CV-ene er så utrolig bra, egentlig).

Også ringte jeg Benefit Delivery Centre, på 0845 608 8629, for han Barry, hos Sencia, han anbefalte meg dette da.

Så sånn var det.

Og de sier at de skal ringe meg tilbake før klokken 16.20.

(En som het Alan vel, sa dette).

Og da skulle jeg få pengene for 27.8 til 23.9 i en utbetaling, visstnok.

Som kanskje skulle klare å komme inn på RBS-kontoen min, idag.

Vi får se.

For han Alan, sa at min klage, på 'the sanction', hadde blitt 'over-turned', i min favør(!).

(Det samme som de sa, på the Jobcentre, i forrige uke).

Ikke dårlig.

Men jeg skjønner ikke hvorfor, at de ikke sendte den som vanlig, den betalingen, fra 10.9 til 23.9.

Som jeg var på 'sign on'-møte for, på torsdag.

Det var spesielt.

Men men.

Bare noe jeg tenkte på.

Jeg spurte også Sencia om de kunne betale for Web-design kurs.

Som JET ikke svarer om nå.

For på 'induction'-møtet, hos Sencia, i forrige uke, så sa de det, at de også sponser kurs.

Men Barry, han sa idag, at de kun sponser kurs, som er sånn, at man får en på forhånd bestemt jobb, når man har tatt kurset.

Så sånn er det.

Jeg spurte også om en 'statement' fra Naric, som sier at jeg har tilsvarende en Bachelor-grad, i IT.

Om de kunne betale for det.

Eller jeg bare nevnte det.

Jeg sa at vi kunne prate mer om det, på møtet der, neste uke.

Så sånn var det.

Så vi får se hva som skjer.

Vi får se.

Mvh.

Erik Ribsskog

We agreed, that I'd contact Naric, regarding my degrees from Norway. I have degrees at both level 3 and level 5/6. I send about this in different e-mails, first about the level 3 degrees, then I think it's easier to keep the overviev. I went three years on Upper Secondary Business School, in Norway, from 1986 to 1989. For all of these three years, I got a 'vitnemål', that's a (school leaving) certificate. These I think must be at National Diploma-level. The first year, I graduated in 'Grunnleggende handels og kontorfag', which means 'Basic commerce and office-knowledge'. The second year, I graduated, in 'Markedføring', that's Marketing. The third year, I graduated in 'Informasjonsbehandling', that's Information Management. The third year, I had an optional subject, 'Matematikk', that's Maths, (even if we had an a bit un-structurised teacher, in that subject, I'd say, so I only got a 2, as a grade, but that's still a pass). So, since I passed in maths, as an optional subject, then I got a qualification, called 'generell studiekompetanse', earlier called 'examen artium', in Norway. (I think this is what you call A-levels, in the UK). I didn't get this in writing, from my Upper Secondary School. But I got matriculated, at the University of Oslo, in 1991. (Since I had a rest-year, from the Information Management University College, which I studied on then, NHI. And then I got a job in a shop, to save up money for further full time studies. And then I wanted to try to use my mind a bit more as well, since I only sat in the check out in the shop, and I was a bit curios about what 'Examen Philosoficum' was, at the University of Oslo, so I studied there. So the Univeristy of Oslo, can confirm that I have this qualificiation, (I'm sending a copy of their letter), called 'generell studiekompetanse'/'examen artium'/A-levels. Which that I can study at (Norwegian) universities. So these three years at Upper Secondary School in Norway, they gave me three certificates/National Diplomas and one academic qualification, (examen artium/generell studiekompetanse). So I was wondering it I could then please get these transfered to English degrees/qualifications. Because I'm not sure that e.g. the Jobcentre, understand my Norwegian degrees/qualification. (It would then be three National Diplomas I'd guess: - One in Basic Commerce and Office-knowledge/work. - One in Marketing. - One in Information Management. - And also an academic qualification, that means I can study at unversities, (A-levels?). I hope you have the chance to look at this! Thank you very much in advance, for any help! I'm also going to send you another e-mail, about my level 5/6 qualifications/degrees/grades. But I send two different e-mails, about this, since I think it helps with keeping the overview, regarding this. Hopes this is alright!

And to cut out pieses of one's work-experience, on one's CV, isn't really true to the original nature of a CV, which means a descripiton of what one have done, in one's life.

Hi, I'm refering to the e-mail I sent you earlier today, regarding my level 3-degrees. I'm sending this in two e-mails, to help keep the overview. I've studied Information Management, at two years, at NHI, (now NITH), which is a private Norwegian University College, in Oslo. I worked quite a lot, besides these studies, so I lack a couple of subjects, to get a Foundation Degree, from them. Then I worked as a Shop Manager and more, for many years. I then got tired of that company, (because I was unfairly treated there, I thought, and I have en employement-case). Then I started studying at Oslo Univesity College, faculty of engineering, a Bachelor-degree, in IT. I went there for two years, but then I overheard in Oslo, that I was followed by some 'mafian', so I went to study at the University of Sunderland, to try to get away, since I didn't know who this 'mafian' was. There, the Norwegian study-loan bank, started messing with me, so I got the study-loan, four months late. But I got the best grade, on the English-test, for study abroad students, so I didn't have to follow English-classes. Also I passed two assignments in E-commerce, so I think maybe got a pass in that subject. But the University of Sunderland, refuse to send me my files, that shows my results, on assigments and on the English-test etc. But, I have 189 credits in total, from Oslo University College, and NHI (now NITH). And that's more than the 180 credits, needed to get a Bachelor Degree. Also I have studied at the University of Sunderland and at the University of Oslo, (who for failed my Examen Philosoficum-examn, for some strange reason, because I think that's the only examn I've ever failed, if I'm not mistaking). So all in all, I think this should really be like a Bachelors Degree, in IT/Information Management/Computing. I'm sending scanned copies of my results from Oslo University College, faculty of engineering and from NHI/NITH. I hope very much that I could please get a Bachelors Degree, from these files. That would have been very fine, because employers they don't really understand my Norwegian degree, I think. And neighter does the Jobcentre, they say I'm at level 4, when I'm really at level 6, I think, (or at least at level 5 which Jet Employability Team and the Direct Gov-website says). I hope you agree with me on this! Thank you very much for any help in advance!
