Need Advice on Career Switch.

If you're thinking 'bout joining one of the big four after you get your ACCA, don't bother... you're already too old to be an auditor..
Even mid tier firms might not hire you for audit...
Without a good portfolio... you won't go very far... So if you want a solid piece of advice.. you either start your own business... or stick it out with your production planning stuff....
Sorry mate...

Yeah actually, I think MOE is moving towards teachers with at least a degree.
As for tuition, most agencies are also looking for NIE or former teachers. No more chapalang teachers with no qualifications like last time.
Sigh, it's getting tougher out there.

Please!
Even Cold Storage managers have degrees, I talked to the cashiers and they told me, basic degree is a minimum.

A degree these days is the new diploma.
You need to get a graduate level degree or additional certification on top of your basic degree as a bare minimum these days.

Hi im 31 this year, born 1978. got a poly dip in Mfg 1998, Specs Dip in Supply chain 2006. All my past exp eloves around production planning and ops job.
Is it too late for me to swtich to accounts field now? By the time i finished my ACCA, i will be like, 34. Still employable?
You should still continue being employed under your diploma in supply chain while studying for your ACCA.Because you can always switch to an accounting job if you have obtained your ACCA and you have been successful in your job interview to be employed as an accountant.
Always have a backup plan to fall back upon, don't be silly and quit your job to study for 3 years.
If you are studying for the sake of earning more money in the future, then you should continue to roll in the money into your bank account by remaining employable while preparing yourself to be MORE employable upon completion of your ACCA.
