What job did he do in the forces?
What are his skills?
His hobbies?
He is in the Queens Dragoons ( driving tanks basically) Long term he would like to enter property development so maybe joinery would be good.
don't think it would be a cowboy course its organised by the MOD
Best to ask what he wants to do first, or would like to do, it also depends how good he is with lateral thinking on the job.
Wasn't being nasty when I mentioned cowboy courses, there's too many wanting to grab his money see the thread in the link.

ooops it seem like I'm deciding his future (not the case) we have these Father Son conversations, and he has asked my advice. He will of course decide for himself. The thread is a way of seeing what type of options are out there.
Anyway thanks for all your comments they are of help.
