In the UK, I would look at certification by BIPP (the British Institute of Professional Photography). Like other major national professional associations (PPA in the USA, PPoC in Canada), full membership is juried and contingent on both photographic competence and viable/ethical business practices. Training is available if you want it. Individual ...

The free resource you point to (digital photography school) has a great reputation and produces quality content. Start there and don't think about spending money until you start feeling like you you find yourself unable to push your craft forward with the resources available. When you're ready to start investing in being taught, take a look at resources like ...

Addressing the question from this point: leading on to a career change into photography A photography career is actually not really about photography, thats just what you produce. A career is either getting a job from someone else, in which case you need to have self marketing skills, networking, and get lucky, or it's about creating your own business ...

I know you are in the UK but you mentioned the potential to learn via distance. I personally have been looking into this course, as a few friends of mine have raved about it. The institute is located in Australia, but can do everything via online course. http://www.thephotographyinstitute.com.au It's pretty cheap (At least by Australian standards) so I ...

I can't speak from personal experience on the topic of paid vs free web seminars, but I have been a business analyst for 30+ years, where these sorts of decisions are daily challenges. Nearly all business is about making decisions with lots of unknowns. I suggest you rephrase your question a little bit: As a beginner, with limited funds, how do I most ...

I have no doubt that the information you need can be found on the internet for free. It's a matter of you knowing what you need to learn and going and finding it. You won't find the best articles on every photographic subject on one site, nor will you find it in any course. If you take the time to look around you can find the information from a number of ...

London School of Photography is offering 5-day courses on "Photojournalism & Street Photography". The courses run from Monday to Friday, with Wednesday reserved for homework on your own. The courses are held roughly monthly with next one starting on July 11th. Price: £595.

There are loosely three general options for courses: self paced training from training materials, such as those offered by the Open University in the UK; brand specific courses, such as those endorsed by Canon and offered by Experience Seminars in the UK; and also courses that are for specific disciplines within photography. Of course, all of these type of ...

I'm a happy customer of Adorama, and they have a whole slew of online videos at Adorama Learning Center My wife has recently decided that she wants to buy her first dSLR and I pointed her at the D3100 review and she liked it because rather than facts and figures, it described more how you would use the camera in terms that she could understand.

This is a dilemma most of us face when getting into photography. I would suggest that you start reading some books or visit the innumerable sites available in the internet for learning the basics of photography. Understand the terms and techniques and put it in practice by taking pictures. Again read a different topic and practice it with your camera. With ...

There are many excellent online sources for learning different aspects of photography. What I've yet to find offered free of charge (though it may well be out there somewhere) is a good methodical course that begins with the assumption you know little to nothing about photography and systematically covers everything from the ground up. We all learn ...

There are a lot of available online photography learning resources on the internet, but one of the first steps in learning photography is to be familiarized and understand your gear/s. Its functionality, settings, etc, which is found on the product's manual. It's important because most of the free tutorials on net or on actual, it covers the ...

I haven't taken this workshop personally, but I've seen her lectures which are profound. If you like Mary Ellen Mark's vision, then learn from the master herself: http://www.maryellenmark.com/workshops/oaxaca/oaxaca_workshop_info.html
