If you feel that having a degree is a requirement to move forward , then I suggest you act with haste and either go back to Study full time now or perhaps more sensibly, enrol on a part time remote degree course and secure that Degree, it’s a frequently trodden path by those who didn’t do so well at school and it provides an excellent qualification to meet most, if not all, recruitment requirements. I have a degree from Uni, my brother has an equivalent engineering degree gained through ongoing part time study , luckily he was guided along that path from age 16 and has found it very enabling in his ongoing career .
