Moving on to 1993, I had another opportunity to study, again funded generously by my employers.

My work has centred around what used to be called Programming Computers back in the Seventies. It became Information Systems (IS) and then Information Technology (IT) as it is now known.

So, in the Nineties, I studied Object Oriented Programming Languages, Project Management, and Intelligent Systems Analysis and Design, followed by M801, a Research project. My dissertation was entitled, 'Staff Scheduling for Maternity Services: A Practical Design and Implementation.'

In 1998, I was awarded a Master of Science degree in Computing for Commerce and Industry, to add to my two Bachelor of Arts degrees.
