Private catering, is a nice way of coining it in, especially canape parties.
Shame my business partner b*ggered orf to Devon and I couldn't get a replacement. Hours could be carp but it was enjoyable.
Unfortunately the people who would employ you for said parties were the very ones who tightened their belts when the recession kicked in.

From NVQs up to a degree. Specialist hairdressing colleges exist.

Hairdressing.
I'm not sure if there is an exam format but I imagine there would be.
My mates missus is a trendy hairdresser a does mobile hairdressing and charges an average of around £40 per client - I think it is around £30 for a blokes trim and she sometimes does the whole family in one sitting. Now if she does around a ten hour day and fits in around 8 clients a day that is £240 per day. I know she does well over a grand a week, is all cash and although probably quite hard work isn't as soul destroying as sitting at a computer screen all week.

What I should do is something to do with business. Maybe get certified for trading/analysis from the financial regulatory bodies in the US/UK.

Scrum Master training is what I shall do.
- must be classroom-based √
- must have an exam / practical test at the end that results in a pass/fail √
- ideally should be a qualification of some sort √

It doesn't look like rocket science to me (having used 2 week prototype / present / develop / repeat cycles of development). And it does come up on Jobserve.

Classroom based, nice location, plenty of scope to become very rich.

Don't ever go for an ITIL course & examination!
It's far too crowded as it is!

Do you have any experience in this area?
I would imagine it would be difficult to breakthrough without the SAP experience.
My experience has been implementing Service Management tools, processes and culture to support SAP implementations.
Fortunately SAP is crap when it comes to SM.
