Final Cut Pro

I now have my Apple Certificate in 'Introduction to Final Cut Pro'
I have never ever touched this program before. All I have on my home Mac is an old version of 'imovie' which is fun but not really that good.
So as a beginner I have learnt all the basics of final cut pro now. Mostly the course was learning all of the shortcuts and editing some hideous whale footage. I have learnt to be a lot more organised now though, making sure all the bins are sorted before i start editing, editing sequences and using markers.
We also went through a bit of multicam, tranisitions and different effects. Theres not a huge amount to really comment on, they gave us the book and training materials to go with it and I passed the exam at the end.
I would like to do the advance course at some point but that would have to be with my own money, so it may be a while...
