what is the job market like for people with security management qualifications in Trinidad and Tobago

what is the job market like for people with security management qualifications in Trinidad and Tobago.?
I am a Trini living in the UK and I work in the rail transport sector. One of my responsibilties is security and I am planning a career change to security full time starting with an MSc security management in October 2010. (already have a BSc. Social Science) I worked in the security industry in Trinidad for about 11 years before emigrating. Anybody know what the job prospects are. I am 48 though and wonder what job seeking in Trinidad and Tobago past 50 would be like.

Your best bet may be to set up your own security company. Security is on the mind of most Trinis these days and business places as well as homeowners are very concerned. Lots of residential areas have security companies patrol the area for a fee. Where I live they charge TT$125 a month per household, but the service is only at night time and its just one car. At least its better than nothing. There are a lot of security companies however but their service is at times less than up to mark. I myself have an alarm at home which triggers a call to a security company. About a month ago one of my relatives set off the alarm by accident and the company never responded. They said the girl monitoring the system was new. Lucky for me it was not a real emergency.

I think the prospect is good. Some of these security personnel making more money than police and army personnel.

As an MSc is more research-based than an BSc you'll be in charge of managing your own time. If the course is over a single year you will be quite busy, but fortunately you'll always have time for a social life, and Brighton is a great city for that.

The MBA is a general business degree training students for top level management positions up to CEO or for those with entrepreneurial objectives of starting their own business. MBA students study accounting, finance, marketing, management, statistics, economics, strategy, policy, and other courses. Many MBA programs offer concentrations in these and many other fields, but that amounts to only 2-3 courses in your chosen field in the second year of study. Many students avoid a concentration and take a variety of elective subjects to gain a broader background. The Master of Science is a specialized degree in a particular field such as finance, chemistry, accounting, engineering, etc. training students for top level staff and research positions who prefer not to get into general management. The MS typically requires an undergraduate education in the field in which you want the MS, or a closely related field. A finance major does not get an MS in chemistry, and a biology major does not get an MS in accounting. If you want to specialize in a particular field other than business administration, such as finance, marketing, operations management, human resource management, or a non-business field such as public health, or public administration, you should get an MS degree in that specialization. The Official MBA Guide provides a lot of information about the MBA degree and MBA schools and programs. It's a comprehensive free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. It allows you to search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. Schools report their accreditation status, tuition cost, number of students, class sizes, program length, and a lot of other data. Schools provide data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees, and much more. You can use the Guide to contact schools of your choice, examine their data, visit their web site, and send them pre applications. You can see lists of top 40 schools ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. It's the best service available at http://officialmbaguide.org.

Well, without knowing what your career is, then I can't tell you. You can get a Masters of Business Admistration, but if you are just doing basic tech work, then maybe that's not your thing. You can for M. IT or a Masters in Marketing. It all depends on what you are doing and where you want to go. I think you should contact a counseler and the school you want to attend, they should be able to help you the best.
