I've a Natural Science degree so I "minored" in CS, Americanised as that word is.

My degree was in modern languages, well three of them to be precise.

IT just paid better than translating or teaching, and the languages have helped with my current business.

Edit: I guess that make me an AndyW as I have never gained any formal IT qualification.

HND in software Engineering at college. Then (for some unfathomable reason that seemed a good idea at the time) did the BCS part II. Did some professional certifications - SSADM, Windows 98, Oracle something or other...

Does a GCSE in Computer Studies count as a school qualification? If it does I answered incorrectly.

Computing to A-Level... Thought it was part of my generalist degree.

Graph paper & Cobol. How it's all changed!

Did you have one of those flowchart templates? Gave mine to a geeky friend for his birthday!

I have an MBA from Concordia College.

In IT I only have a certification.
In accounting I have a bachelor.

Seems to be working ok though.

At least my wife is a software engineer and worked on the LHC2.
