The Freelance Essentials programme supports students and graduates in setting them on the right track to becoming highly self-employed professionals by running a part-time or full-time commercial activity.
The programme includes expert-led workshops, mentoring, networking, pitching events and even seed funding to get their activity up and running or expand it.
Participants are encouraged to register to the full programme rather than attending individual sessions in the series. Registering can get you access to office hours (mentoring), on-demand content (session recordings as well as resources for self-learning). You will also be able to apply for a £500 Pioneer Bursary funding to help kickstart your business journey.
You can find out more and register to the full Freelance Essentials programme via this page.
