Ive got a feeling thats how im going to have to learn, just dont want to be limited to what i can do when i come to apply for a 'proper' job. I had noticed hurco's seem to be a fairly simple set of controls, again, just dont wanted to be stuck not knowing alot and getting to an age where companys dont want to invest time/ money on training me futher.

Out of intrest do/ would a company take people on in a trainee capacity, i.e limited knowledge and give on the job training?
