    @trephena.

    I’ve read the Information pack and I’ve read a lot of your contributions on other pages regarding topic 8 and I’m just overwhelmed.

    I need a place to start.

    I’m looking at working on a company in the Automobiles industry.

    Thanks

    You really need to get yourself a mentor as it is difficult for us to talk you through this. The first step is use the Information Pack and formulate your report objectives and research questions and the report normally builds up from these

    @trephena

    Thanks. I’ve done just that and would move on methodically as laid out in the information pack.

    And yes, I have a mentor but from our first meeting he doesn’t seem to be interested in getting involved as such so taking my destiny in my hands

    Then unfortunately you chose the wrong mentor. There needs to be a relationship whereby the mentor guides you. Sometimes it is a case of paying for a professional mentor who rhas the right expertise and really understands the requirements.

    Word of mouth is usually the best way of finding a mentor (or possibly selecting an Open Tuition recommended mentor as they are experienced)
