Hi everyone,

I'm trying to figure out if I work a Westgate contract into my schedule for the new year but I'm having a hard time with the starting/ending dates that the Westgate site offers.

For example, the university program says that the dates are Mar/Apr/May - Jul/Aug. What does that mean? Is it possible a contract could go all the way from March to August? Or are they a restricted 3-4 months?

And the young learners program is three months but mentions Apr - Jul. I'm assuming that means middle of April to middle of July?

Could someone clarify?

Thanks!

It depends what contract you do but if you are doing the univeristy course that I am doing, it starts at the end of april 2010 and finishes at the end of July. Another course then starts at the end of sept to mid dec.

They are short term contracts and you don't get paid any of the time in middle. If it fits in with your life, then, in my opinion, it's a great job.

Just to mention that I don't know about the Young learners programme. The one I am doing is the most commmon I believe.

Good luck!
